Who grew our
Mitakawani Pili Pili?
grown in zanzibar
Mitakawani Village, Zanzibar
Right in the middle of the Southern island of Unguja lies the small village of Mitakawani. Far removed from any lucrative tourist spots, they are completely reliant on spice farming. Since most of the people here only have small plots of land, they tend to mix their relatively small harvests together and share the profits.
