Carol, I agree! I was also thinking as I read all the comments on the increase of food costs that why don't we get more constructive ideas and suggestions about that particular problem? There were some good ideas introduced, such as sustainable trees, but they got buried on all the side-trips to banter punatics who are wanting advice and because they express different views or made a remark that takes others on a tangent away from topic, the whole point of the topic is lost and viewers quit reading or worse yet, quit contributing.
I am all for positive help! We do need to be realistic about the food supply on the islands. I think all of us need to seriously ask ourselves, "what can I do to contribute to the food supply if imports stop?"
Truth is, I'm a pathetic gardener but I KEEP TRYING by gaining knowledge. Come on, Puna people...let's work together, no matter how different we think. It can be done. [

And the Puna climates are blessings! I just spent 5 days in hot Lahaina and was so happy to return to cool evenings again and even the rain was welcomed![
