About the Flag

Flora Rica was founded in 1927 by José Firpo. The village was originally named Vila Rica (Rich Town), a name highlighting the fertility of the soil and aimed at attracting colonists. The district of Vila Rica was established on 19 March 1948, as part of the municipality of Pacaembu. The municipality of Flora Rica was established by State Law No. 2,456 of 30 December 1953 and inaugurated on 30 October 1954.
