We have now been approved by the United States Deptartment of Agriculture to ship flowers and foliage direct from our farm! We are a Rose Apple Forest in a rain forest climate. And we are an organic farm. We have an ecologically- and spiritually-minded approach. Kolealea is committed to harmonious and peaceful farming. Our mission is to bring Humans and Nature back together in health and happinness, to learn from and respect each other and feel the oneness with our planet earth. We work with the land, existing plants and forest spirits. A goal is to establish a native Hawaiian landscape which provides us with education, food and beauty. At the same time we integrate other tropical food plants, exotic flowers and edible mushrooms. Our Coffee is growing wild. We are using organic gardening methods, Permaculture and the traditional Hawaiian wisdom.
In the beginning in 2006, we had some Bananas, Roseapple forest, Bamboo, Orange and
Avocado trees.
We invite you to experience the ‘aina’, the land, and to let it teach you and nurture you in your journey of discovery. Our invitation goes out to people who seek to learn about the Hawaiian lands and ecosystems, permaculture, nature and traditions. Kolealea Farm can be found in a secluded setting in ‘Upcountry’ Maui, and offers both privacy and convenience for your learning experiences. At Kolealea we enjoy ideal temperatures (about 80 degrees F) year-round, and we are only minutes away from all you need: historic towns with restaurants and unique boutiques; world-class windsurfing, surfing, swimming and walking beaches; and Haleakala Crater National Park. The airport and central shopping districts are 25 minutes away and the famous ‘road to Hana’ is at our back door. |
