Kokua Makua invitation.
We will meet up at the north end of Makua Beach 7 am this Sunday morning to prep the 2 imu for the upcoming Makua Valley event. See RSVP link below.
If you have a weedeater or grass sickles, please bring. And gloves and boots or shoes is probably a good idea.
Not sure if we're going to gather Pohaku first or cut wood.
Look for me in a 1995 black Toyota Tacoma truck with plenty bumper stickers and decals on it. It's an OG.
Will be there for a few hours, so please bring water, sun protection, some food, work and swimming clothes.

Naupaka is fruiting on the Westside.
They are a wonderful laau- medicine!
Many many years ago, when his son was a little boy and got stung by a bee, Kaipoi Kellings asked me to go gather a few of the white berries, which he then smashed, and then gently rubbed on his son’s bee sting. In a few minutes his son stopped crying and was up and running around on the beach again. 
Since then we have applied it successfully to bee stings, red ant bites and the itch the day after, Portuguese man of war, scorpion sting, hives, mosquito bites…
It only fruits part of the year, so we gather and put it in the freezer.
`Aina loves us and constantly provides for our well-being.
Ku Kia’i no ka `Aina!

Been cooking Ulu on the fire for 20 years and yesterday afternoon for the first time had one EXPLODE! Was walking by the fire and BOOM got splattered with Ulu shrapnel.
My son Daniel said he had one explode in the oven.
LMK if you’ve had a similar experience.
Aloha Nui!

We would appreciate some strong kokua tomorrow if anyone is available. It’s our first Kiawe bean washing of the season and one of our crew is MIA and one is out for two hours for lifeguard training and that leaves us really short handed.
Must warn you.
Washing beans is probably the hardest work in the kiawe season and that is mostly because you’re in the full sun the whole time. So if you’re not strong in the heat, then this is not a job for you.
We start at 8 AM and shoot to be done by noon or 1 PM latest- before it gets to really hot.
We be jammin, so if you like the jammin LMK.
Call or text me @ 8084786492.
Mahalo Nui!
