Silent Saturday - pick your own pineapples in Haiku Maui
Yes you really can grow a pineapple from the cut off top, as you can see here. These were grown from recycled pineapple tops.  It helps if you're very patient as it can take years. 
It shouldn't take you years to find a home for sale in Haiku Maui, especially if you have helpf from a local Haiku Realtor like myself.  Buy a home in Haiku and start growing pineapples!
Thanks for reading my Maui blog...

hawaii life real estate: Not that many bank owned condos for sale on Maui - 03/16/16 09:13 AM
Not that many bank owned condos for sale on Maui
You would think there would be a lot of bank owned/REO condos in a resort area like Maui.  Considering there are thousands of condos, I'm surprised to see there are only a few REOs in our MLS.  There are probably still more coming, but for now this is what's available.
Currently there are only 16 of these bank owned foreclosure condominiums for sale, and 6 of those are under contract, leaving only 10 Active listings.

hawaii life real estate: Really good hamburgers at Hana Ranch Provisions, Paia Maui - 10/18/15 12:03 PM
Really good hamburgers at Hana Ranch Provisions, Paia Maui
We have enjoyed a really good meal at the new restaurant in Paia... Hana Ranch Provisions. They strive to grow their own food for the eatery, and the beef comes from the Hana Ranch which has a long history of cattle ranching. Since we also raise our own grass fed beef, we are hard to please, but honestly their hamburger was praise worthy and I'll go there again.
The menu is limited, but so is the menu at my house where we also eat a lot of our own home grown produce and meat.  … (6 comments)

Aloha Friday from Haliimaile General Store in Haliimaile Maui



You can be sure of a great meal when you visit the Haliimaile General Store (which is really a top notch restaurant) in this quaint village just below Makawao.  It was once a general store when this was a company town in the heart of pineapple country. Pineapples are still grown here and now they use them to make vodka!
Call them at 808 572-2666, or just drive over there and make yourself at home. Try one of the designer cocktails. Cheers!

Harvesting some wild Haiku Maui honey for Christmas
We were blessed to have some honey bees move into an old shed and build their hive here on our Haiku Maui farm. They have been very busy because there was a huge amount of honey combs inside when we took a quick peek.  Luckily a friend and neighbor who has his own hives suggested he could remove the queen bee and the colony to his nearby location.  He even offered to leave us with the honey since he already has plenty.

So he came over with his buddy, got all suited … (6 comments)
