Why are the groves dying?

Tempted to drop by the groves on the way to Vacationland and ask to purchase a few trees...(imediate gratification kind of guy)

Hope to open my Chiropractic practice some day on the BI and barter for fruits and veggies..fish..LOL.

Mahalo everyone,

Glen - the groves are thriving! They were at the end of their cycle and now the new plantings are 3-4 feet high. Looking good! The other side of the road is bursting with papayas too! They spray 'em plenty though so have to wear farmers' boots.
