Sweet Home Waimanalo

I almost never go out to Waimanalo, but after yesterday, I think I may want to make the long drive out more.  Life seems so laid back, free of stress.  The communities seem close knit and open to newcomers.  The scenery was beautiful, almost out of a Hawaii tourist guide.  I also admired Kevin's willingness to learn and adopt new practices for being self-sustainable and environmentally friendly.  I was really interested in his farming techniques and his wiki-gardens, since I am currently trying to start an organic garden of my own.  Seeing how he turns the waste of one process into the fuel for another, which then produces the fuel for another, is genius!  I was also really fascinated by his next aquaponics project, and how he was planning to tie in the waste produced by the restaurant as food for both the fish and chicken.  I really hope to get out there and help Kevin work on the farm soon!
