Living Comfortably in Zimbabwe: 5 Things You Absolutely Need!

  • After many years in the diaspora and starting to think of retirement back home ,we ,(my wife and I) started to brainstorm different ideas.
    We settled on free range organic chicken farming! 🥚🐣🐓😍. We will also grow organic vegetables.
    We have lived in the United Kingdom for just over 20 years with our five children who were all home educated.
    While living in the U.K we became very aware of food standards because food was not the same as what we had left behind.
    Very early on we started buying organic food and wild fish. We would like to continue on this path of healthy eating and growing our own food.
    The chickens will be pasture raised. We are implementing a permaculture farming method.
    We will also be using the regenerative agriculture approach to help the soils get all the necessary nutrients.
    We bought the land which had lots of gum trees which took a lot of nutrients out of the soil. We need to add these back using the regenerative agriculture approach.
    We will use this platform to share information we learn along the way.
    There was a pond on the farm which has dried out but we need to revive it as part of permaculture farming.
    What is regenerative agriculture?
    Soil health and the regeneration of topsoil (the surface layer of soil) are the main priorities of regenerative agriculture. Going well beyond organic farming, regenerative agriculture is a system of agricultural practices and principles that increases ecosystem health, improving nutrients in foods, which almost become a by-product of the planet’s restoration. Soil Heroes
    What is permaculture?
    It involves taking care of the earth and working with it. We will be using systems like rain capture and solar systems. Trying to be off grid as much as possible.

    Well presented snapshot of the essential aspects of returning to Zim from the diaspora. People forget that the same home comforts they had abroad may not be present in the same way in Zim. One has to adapt and adjust to the new environment and live within their means. It’s not a competition at all.

      Please don’t take my comment the wrong way. Doing your own research is always best. Many times, we are lazy and just ask someone. Just because he has done it before, does not mean he did it in the best or in the most affordable way. The way things work in zim, when you ask someone for help, they generally add their own cut which ends up making it more expensive for you.

There is nothing wrong with asking a question or needing help or a point in the right direction.If it’s a No -I understand. If someone has done it before, it could mean they have used legitimate trustworthy people / a company to export their goods .

      I was there 2 years ago. I rented a car for the weekend. I wanted to return the car after 1 day, but i ended up having to pay for 2 days because i was going to return exactly at the same time i picked it up. I ended up paying 300 bucks plus another 150 or so for fuel and other costs. There were other shady private peeps renting out cars for 75 bucks a day. Point being if you going to zim, find a relative or friend with a second car you can use while you are there.
