Mutoko


Mutoko is a small town in Mashonaland East province, Zimbabwe. It was established as an administrative station in 1911. It lies 143 km from Harare. It is named after the local Chief Mutoko.
This town is capital of the Mutoko District which is inhabited by the Buja people. The Buja people are said to have settled in Mutoko from Mhingari in what is now Mozambique
The Buja people are known for being amongst the best tomatoes and mango farmers in Zimbabwe. Besides Mutoko is surrounded by villages which were given to farmers after the war, its from these resettlements the country is fed. In these areas we produce maize, cotton, beans and recently tobacco. I guess Mutoko is one of the major bread baskets of Zimbabwe.
