Join Us Thursday, August 10th!

Hawai'i Farmers Union United, Mauna Kahalwai Chapter presents its monthly locavore potluck from 6 to 8 p.m. (doors at 5:30 p.m.) Thursday, August 10th at Mill House Restaurant at Maui Tropical Plantation.
 
The evening’s guest speakers include Joshua Chaves and Koa Hewahewa of Hōku Nui, a 265-acre regenerative farm in upcountry Maui. Using regrarian principles of farming, Hōkū Nui is healing the land and building top soil using methods such as rotational grazing of multiple species, some key line plowing, composing and IMO application. A small "agrihood" community is planned which will integrate community and agriculture on this mixed-use property.
  • Joshua Chaves is the Chief Operating Officer of Construction and Development, taking the lead on the housing project.
  • Koa Hewahewa is the Director of Forestry Operations, responsible for the planning and management of habitat restoration for the planned Native Habitat Corridor throughout the middle of Hōkū Nui's farm.
The evening will also include a produce swap, a farmers market table, live music, prize giveaways, networking, and more.
 

You don’t need to be a farmer to support Hawai'i Farmers Union United. Anyone who is concerned about where our food comes from is welcome. Come network with local producers and talk story about growing one's own food.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a dish to share (to feed six people). Otherwise, cost is $10 for Hawai'i Farmers Union United members; $12 for non-members. This is a waste-free event. Please bring your own plate and utensils, or they will be provided for a fee.

You may become a member at the event, or by visiting HFUUHI.org. Annual membership is $50, or $100 for a family of four.
Aloha,

James Simpliciano
President, Mauna Kahalawai chapter
Hawai'i Farmers Union United
