We are a family of three, originally from the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. Currently we are traveling around Europe telling the stories of local farmers and homesteaders. Our family is comprised of Emily, Hunter and our son. I was born and raised in Hawaii and Emily moved here from Arizona twelve years ago. We have a love for nature, farming, gardening, animals, baking, and growing our own food. We strive to be good stewards of the land and to be mindful of what we put in our bodies.

Our time in France has come to an end. We are now taking time to edit everything we captured there while we stay in Belgium. Here we are working and taking some family time as there is lots to edit still. Iʻm excited for those stories to come out shortly. Iʻd like to connect more with those who are following along through posts. Letʻs get to know each other :)

Just released our first interview with a local farmer/homesteader here in Brittany, France. The video is full of great examples or natural and organic farming, along with great life lessons. I hope youʻll take the time to give it a watch. Cheers!

We've got some big plans in the works for 2025! We'll be visiting some special places and telling the stories of the people in those areas. We plan to keep working, volunteering on farms, gardening, and helping in local beehives. We hope you stick around for our next adventure😊🤙🏽

If you've been on our account at all lately you'd know that we are knee deep in beekeeping. We just did our second honey harvest of the year and are honey rich. If you live on Oahu, HI and want to come snag some they are for sale on our site. As for the rest of you who want raw honey, go find your local beekeepers and give them some support.

It's been great having my brothers back on the island again. Lately we have been trying to get out to spear more of our protein. We came back with a few small ones, but they were delicious none the less. If we don't catch any fish we trade our eggs and sourdough bread with a local fisherman and it has been a great setup. Hope you all are doing well, best of luck catching and growing your food.

I recently posted a video of my first Kalo harvest and I've been getting tons of comments from around the world. I keep hearing about all of these great recipes so I thought I'd put down a place where people can add recipes in case they see this post. Thanks 😊

Hey everyone that is new and everyone that has been here since the start. Just wanted to say thanks to those who have joined our community and share a little update. The garden is growing like crazy with all the rain weʻve had this winter. The orchard is pumping and banana bunches are popping up all over the place. We recently got rid of our two ducks because they were stressing out our chickens. We were only getting an egg a day for months and as soon as we got rid of the ducks we started getting more eggs. Now we get about half a dozen eggs a day and our son has been loving getting the eggs. The bees are also doing great, they are happily growing! Love you all, hope your year is going good :)

Our area is experiencing a dearth right now in the apiary. Our bees have undergone a lot of rain and wind this past month and the food is running in short supply. As beekeepers we stepped in and gave them some "food," which is just some sugar dissolved in water. All the hives got fed, but that didn't stop them from going crazy! We triggered a war at the apiary and robbing was happening everywhere. Tune in to see a short video on what that looks like this week. Here are some pictures of the calm before the storm!

I'm not sure how you all feel about Mondays, but there is just something about starting a new week that I love. Last week we were very productive in the garden. We got our banana patch finished and irrigated. We brought in 1,400 pounds of fresh compost and amended our 3 main garden beds. We harvested some propolis from our beehive, and got some very pretty eggs! Lastly we cleaned up weeds, which always feels really good to get rid of. Hope you all have a great new week and are able to accomplish some of the plans you have set out for yourself. This week we plan to film our Sourdough course, so that is super exciting! Stay tuned:)
