Community dare called for August harvest planning
Chief Rusike invites all headmen and village heads to the August dare at the Chief's homestead.
Mashonaland East · Zimbabwe
Home of the Rusike people.
A living record of our leadership, land, and shared work — the Chief Rusike community of Goromonzi South, gathered under one roof.
A word of welcome
"This site belongs to every household from Dzvanga to Juru. Read, question, and take part — that is how the dare is kept alive in a new time."
The Chief Rusike Community website is a home for our history, our leadership, and the work we are doing together — from farming co-operatives and school-building to preserving the songs and stories our grandparents carried. Every page here should be checked, improved, and added to by the people it describes.
