This study analyzed the intersection of identity, tradition, and cultural resilience among the farinheiras (women flour producers) in the Casas de Farinha (Flour Houses) of Quissamã, Rio de Janeiro. Grounded in decolonial and post-colonial theoretical frameworks, the research examined how these women navigated historical and socio-political pressures while preserving traditional cassava flour production practices. The study underscored the significance of collective memory as a tool of resistance, highlighting the agency of the farinheiras in reshaping their social landscape through communal practices such as the farinhada (flour-making ritual). By employing a cartographic methodology, the research identified Casas de Farinha as essential sites of cultural preservation, economic resilience, and social transformation. The findings revealed that these spaces not only supported livelihoods but also reinforced collective identities, contributing to broader struggles for agrarian reform, ecofeminism, and socio-environmental jus- tice. Ultimately, the paper argued for the recognition of diverse epistemologies and emphasized the importance of inclusive policies that value local knowledge and cultural practices as foundations for resilience and empowerment.
