                                                                             Spring is finally here, and the vegetable plots at Magoon are thriving.


 We have had a good turnout of volunteers lately and it is really making a difference.

For any and all that are interested, com up this Saturday to help out, there is always so much to do.



We will be there from 9AM until 4PM, so feel free to show up anytime during the day.

We will be working on our compost piles, planting broccoli, tending to the chickens, and as always, weeding.

Things to do today!

Banana Walkway Update

One of many bunches not yet ready to harvest!

Gabe leads the lesson on collecting keiki

The bananas planted down by the Art building are doing great! 

We currently have 11 plants that are fruiting and we cant wait to harvest. 

The banana walkway was honored to serve the TPSS 300 class as a living laboratory for 

lessons on banana care and production. 

Gabe led the lesson and showed the class how to collect keiki, harvest bunches, 

and proper maintenance techniques.
