The property stops you in your tracks and you forget, for a moment, that the rest of the world is out there.

This property has it all…a commercial “white pineapple” farm (MLS# 249154) with steady income and a beautiful home that shows true pride of ownership.

Presumably the “rock mulch” retained moisture and soil and nutrients facilitating the growth of these and other crops planted on [...]
Discussing sustainable living and farming on Maui, and how it correlates to real estate, is one of my greatest passions.

Just like the song says, “farm living is the life for me!” I live the real life version of Green Acres everyday on my farm in Hawi, a quaint little town on the northern tip of the Kohala Coast. Being a city girl like Eva Gabor’s character on the 60′s TV show “Green Acres,” I [...]
