embe estate
a long table, in the jungle.
The Embe Estate Table is a private dinner held a few times a year on a small agricultural estate near Jozani, in the south of Zanzibar. One long table under the embe (mango) trees. Local produce, wood fire, and a quiet evening in the bush. By invitation only.
The estate
Embe Estate is a working botanical and agricultural site operated by EMBE Foundation. It is part research station, part garden, part kitchen — a place to study how plant systems hold balance through the seasons. The table is the Estate's open evening.
When
