The article discusses the ways in which the quilombolas of Sapê do Norte, in the extreme north of Espírito Santo, Brazil, shaped multispecies landscapes in this region through a distinctive rurality based on shared inhabitation of land by community members, hunting, gathering, fishing, and a distinctive form of agriculture. These methods that shaped the landscapes in Sapê do Norte allowed the quilombola families to remain in this region and continue this way of life while also making it possible for other species to live in this area; for example, maintaining the forests, soils, and water cycle gave rise to new varieties of plants and animals.
