Anekona, looking makai — where organically grown ag takes place.
Made a labor-for-huli trade with Jonah and his mom. I worked for half a day at their farm in Haiku and got about 50 huli in return. I planted these the next day at Anekona and should be getting taro in a year.
Kalaupapa was the leper colony on Molokai established in the 1870s. The Kalaupapa Post Office had this shirt a couple of years ago. Cathy, Jonah’s mom, wears this one. She is a tireless farmer!
Planted out most of the lower and upper mala with taro.
America Artistinal Fruit each get their own trophy and life history written in a little storybook. And this Wireless Pineapple comes with bluetooth so you can listen to music, blog, post to Instagram, twitter, and FB. Voice recognition make a keyboard obsolete. But wait there’s more! A 4K video camera that takes 24 mb stills as you film makes this the perfect vacation accessory. Until the fruit is eaten or rots, of course.
The Anekona Kale is more tender than any other kale you have eaten. Usually kale requires some bruising or massaging to break it down.
Picked and dried a gallon-sized ziplock bag of coffee. It’s surprising how different it is than “store-bought.”
