The word ‘Zongororo’ means millipede in the local dialect, Shona. Fifteen years later, Zongororo is place of restoration, connection, and exploration.

Accommodation, Hiking, Birding, Retreats, Weddings...The Farm strives to be a place of Spiritual Rest, Revival & Restoration, a space where changes can take place, where broken hearts can be healed, captives set free and disciples made. Millipede, in turn, means ‘millions of legs’ which, explains owner Elsa, “teaches us to work together to protect God’s creation and to move steadily towards our goals. It also refers to the train running through the farm, affectionately known as the ‘steel Zongororo’”. The Zongororo story started in 2009 in response to a call from God to establish a Christian guest farm and ministry. It is also testament to more than a decade of inspiration, perspiration, determination, guidance, and assistance from above. The Farm strives to be a place of Spiritual Rest, Revival & Restoration, a space where changes can take place, where broken hearts can be healed, captives set free and disciples made.
