Coconut removal service - rbakker - 04-27-2018

Aloha! Does anyone know of a good service to remove coconuts from my trees? And maybe cut down a few fronds while they're up there. They can have the coconuts if they want! In HPP.

mahalo

Wonderful guy that does coconut removal and pruning. He climbs without spikes which is better for the trees!


RE: Coconut removal service - rbakker - 04-27-2018

Thank you! I've left him a message.

So glad you’re looking to dispose of them in a Pono way. My neighbors solution was to fill up wheel barrels, and send her kids up and down the road throw them on other people’s land. They’re all over the street now.

Let me know if that contact worked for you rbakker.
I know someone too, that also doesn't use spikes. He uses a customized hunting stand. Really cool and efficient.

Kenney, you must mean disposing of the nuts husks and shells after they are eaten right? Would be such a shame if the tossed nuts were uneaten and wasted. Coconuts are such a super food, and at all stages. Coco water when young, meat and some water when mature and even delicious when the nut is old and sprouted. It becomes like cotton candy.

Unfortunately, no EW. Whole, uneaten coconuts were thrown away, and now they’re all growing in the roadway.

Maybe a poor attempt at turning the road into a food forest?
