This month: You can't get fresher (and cheaper) produce than from your own yard! Annual vegetables take a lot of work and aina disruption to plant & maintain every year. Perennials are often easily planted, then fend for themselves while improving aina health and yielding for multiple years. We'll discuss perennial options for familiar veggies like collards, beans, peppers & squash; and lesser known easy greens, flowers, roots & other tasty nibbles. Join us to learn and share!

TOUR: noon til 1, with time to chat or wander more afterwards.

Q? how many endemic plants are actually planted in your Pāhoa Urban Food Forest parkinglot yard???

In past u foodscape kine poser fakas ALWAYS ignored endemic/indigenous native plants. period!
and sadly many (usually maga kine pseudo entitled nbred reetards) didnt even know what the word 'endemic' actually means

for 2 decades+ now Ive seen these same posts from save-aina-posers like Belly Acres, Someland, and that lame worthless invasive species promoting Hawaiian Sanctuary Retreat near Pahoa, etc.

now u poser plant clowns get one old house kine storefront in Pahoa, and growing rubbish like papaya kale and mint next to the stairs....and think u 'winning' in Puna?
maybe try hard with actual Hawaiian/Owhyheean chit....

in last 245 yrs.... 1/3rd of the 1200+ KNOWN endemic Hawaiian plants are now Extinct
1/3rd are nearly extinct
and of the last 1/3rd, you be lucky to see 30 diff in the wild anywhere in State, and youd be lucky to find 1 poser local kine faka who can actually name more than 10 endemic plants (besides the younger Kam School kids who actually do know some of this chit)

try add in some actual helping Owhyhee's endemic/indigenous kine flora and fauna info....

and not promoting the spread of non-native invasive rubbish plants no one actually NEEDS here....

Wow...

You have to ponder those posts deeply.  I really spun out on the whole "inbred hapa" conundrum and then I realized he most likely meant the Habsburg kine fakaz.
