This work presents the results of our Master´s research, which had as general objective to evaluate the reproductive conditions of the family farming in Sangradouro, Araranguá/SC. It is about a rural community located in coastal vector. Its constitution refers to the beginning of the Twentieth century, when families of farmers forged the one that we denominate “traditionality of the community”. At the end of the same century with the modernizing pressures of the Green Revolution and the globalization, changes occured in the territory like rural exodus of young people and introduction of non agricultural activities. Our qualitative research intended to characterize the occured metamorphoses and their implications in the rural territoriality. We traced the community´s profile through semi-structured interviews, selecting parallel between elements of its history and current setting. Our results pointed the constitution of a territory and hybrid territorialities, where there is a new physical and social scenery, in which characteristic features of urban associate to rural agrarian.  We registered the ageing population and the difficult about the generational succession of family farming. We identified that pluriactivity and multi-yields mark the family dynamics, especially for the role of young people and social security policy. The agricultural lands of Sangradouro are approaching the transmutation into housing and leisure lands.
