Happy Monday

We had another busy and fun weekend on the farm. To prove that we aren't all work and no play, we went to two cookouts.

Saturday afternoon was the HCA cookout at the Greenwell beach house at Kainaliu Beach. The day was absolutely perfect. We had a great time.

Sunday's cookout was hosted by the Rotary Club. This was held at Pu'u Honua O Honaunau also known as City of Refuge. Another great time with great people.

This time of year is when the feral pigs start reproducing. Baby pigs are cute but they grow up to be big pests. Feral pigs are a big concern on the farm as they like to dig around the coffee trees. This can weaken the root system. Sparkle and Ewok don't like them around either but aren't inclined to do much about it. That is actually a good thing, as the boars have very large tusks. We are going to have some traps set up.

Even though its wet season, it has been pretty dry. So hopefully we will get some rain soon. We are fortunate that if need be, we can use our irrigation system.

Have a great day! Time for a stroll around the farm.
