"The Bushcamp Company offers a unique safari experience in South Luangwa National Park, Zambia. They operate a 50-acre farm that provides fresh produce for their main lodge and remote bushcamps. Known for their sustainable practices, they have not had to order anything from Lusaka since the beginning of the year. The farm grows a wide array of produce, and their head chef, Wendy Dunn, creates elegant yet simple menus for their guests. The company's efforts ensure a minimal carbon footprint and a high-end dining experience, including signature dishes like dried mangoes, warm quiche, and omelets made with farm-fresh ingredients." - Stacey Leasca
"In Africa, guests of the Bushcamp Company contribute to initiatives through the Luangwa Conservation and Community Fund."
