Harvest

More and more ipu are getting ready to harvest every day.

The racks are slowly beginning to fill up.

Lots of different shapes.....

and sizes.

We changed the location of the kalo and they really took off. I think it's time to make some laulau or.....palasami...one of my most favorite foods!

New Tractor, New Crop

Here is our new second hand tractor. It came with the necessary implements (mainly the plow and cultivator) so now we are set :)

It is already getting good use as my dad prepares the new field:

The ipu hula and other smaller type ipu are getting close to harvest! Here are some that were picked today....notice that the stems are dried brown. You don't want to harvest if the stems are still green.

The plants are slowing dying off so we should be bringing more and more ipu in soon.

When we have enough, we will be offering an ipu pawehe workshop. If anyone is interested, shoot us an email: info@nakaniohula.com

3rd Place Ipu

At the last minute, we decided to enter a couple of our ipu at the Maui County Fair. We won a Third Place and an Honorable Mention :)

We got beat by kalo and avacados.
Wait til next year.......

We had fun taking our oldest grand-daughter to the fair :)
