At Eastern Amazon, farmers' families build their daily life starting from the forests that complement the landscape, appropriating of the material and non-materials resources which come from the vegetation. The human’s pressure over the nature during the years creates a social drama while the families see the surrounded forests refusing and they become threatened about their land permanence. It was intended to discuss about the various families-forest relations views based in a detailed observation of the daily life at Jericó community in Garrafão do Norte, Pará, Brasil, using as resources: interviews, informal chats and photographic registrations, always having a solid base for the analyses in the local empiric knowledge about the nature. Even if the families worry about the forest degradation there’s a constant necessity to use these forests to guarantee the agricultural productions and other daily activities. In this context, the forest works as a mirror of the man, in front of which he is looking for his self-understanding in the world.
