Little Zimbabwe Farm offers food, music and culture
Amy and Tafadzwa Matamba are on a mission to improve local food security and give the community agency when it comes to their food.
Sitting on the outskirts of Duncan, B.C. in the shadow of Mount Prevost is a farm-meets-cultural centre that is unique to the Cowichan Valley.
Crops like kale and garlic grow on the seven-acre property and a truck in the driveway dons a bumper sticker for the Zimbabwe Music Society. The farm’s roadside sign reads “Little Zimbabwe: Vancouver Island’s Happiest Place” and advertises the Matamba Cultural Arts and Education Centre as well as Little Z’s Chicken, Beef and Veggie Pies.
