This research explores the family and community interactions for the agricultural production of peaches in the rural context of the Altoandino of Tuta, Boyacá. From the disciplinary perspective of social work, the connections established by the settlers with their environment are analyzed in aspects such as the organizational dynamics of everyday life at home and the networks of collective social capital established for the agricultural production of deciduous trees. At a conceptual level, the notions of territorial social work and its analytical crossings with the notions of peasantry are explored. The methodology of the study is qualitative, the participants were ten peach farming families and the information was collected through semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The results show that the organization of rural work is determined by gender and age relationships that determine different forms of linkage with the territory. At the community level, it is observed that the processes of agrarian modernization and the historical barriers of rural institutionally establish difficulties for the configuration of collective links for peach production. In conclusion, the need to establish the concept of territory as an analytical category for the construction of social work anchored to the endogenous experiences of rural dwellers is evident.
