After many years of hard work, saving, and planning i was finally able to buy 3 acres of Farm Land. Im so excited to share this adventure with you all so please Subscribe!
I'd bring a giant bottle of rubbing alcohol with to clean your saw blade from tree resin. I used to have to clean my big boy silky saw taking tipi poles. Balsam is sticky. Take care of your back! Aloha Os... get your pokes iff the ground or beetles bore holes in them. Stand them upright till you can debark them.
Aloha and congratulations on your property and getting a start on your farm-dream! 'Ka hala kahiki' is 'the pineapple'. I think guava is guava in 'ōlelo Hawai'i - although I am not positive. If you want to learn Hawaiian, Duolingo is a great online/app resource. There are likely classes you can take somewhere close to you - so you can learn to converse in Hawaiian. There are other Hawaiian language ('ōlelo) resources online. Best wishes with your property - looking forward to your next video.
I have been using Drop to learn Hawaiian. I know about 350 words and phrases. But I still can't form complete sentences. When I finish my house, im going to take the Hawaiian Language Classes at Hilo University.
Good job, @@keengreenhawaii! Anyone who wants to live in Hawai'i should do their best to learn the language (in my humble opinion). :) Have you considered permaculture for your farm. Lots of permaculturists on Hawai'i Island - so much great information that can help you with your acreage. Also, learning the native Hawaiian plants will be very helpful for identifying the plants on your property - and which ones may need protection. I'm excited for you - it's great you're documenting because it will help you see how much progress you've made. By the way, which area are you in? (if you don't mind sharing).
My farm will be 2 Acres Permaculture food forest, and the other 1 Acre will be Market Garden. The Food Forest will have Animals under it to keep the weeds clear and to fertilize the trees. I live in Puna District. I also agree, I think anyone who moves to Hawaii should respect Hawaiian Culture and Traditions, and learn Hawaiian.
Dear friend put on some personal protection clothing, tall work boots, long pants and long sleve shirt and eye protection and a hat will help. You have a lot of work ahead of you but your young so good luck.
Too many questions to post as a comment here. Been watching your vids on your progress with development and poultry livestock. I started out much like you are over 30+ years ago so it's interesting to watch. One important consideration is NEVER traipse into land you don't own. That is not free-for-all jungle, and those are def not guava LOL.
Yeah, i just finished up fliming the second video, and im editing it now. Things are moving slower since we are in the rainy season, so i haven't had many good days to clear trees and film since the camera equipment cant get wet. But the next video should be put in a week.
Bulldozing the Hawaiian Rainforest is a good way for the Natives to hate you forever. I plan on living in Hawaii until I die, and I dont want the Island Uncles to hate me. Bulldozing seems like a good, easy choice, but it actually destroys the land and makes it hard for anything to grow back. You're usually left with rock everywhere, and the trees you plant won't grow because the tropical sun burns them. Its better to follow the Native Hawaiian Land Management practices they have done for thousands of years. Hawaiian lands look so much more beautiful than Bulldozed flat land does.
Glad you're making your dream come true!! Looking forward to future videos :)
Dude sick video! Keep the series going, cant wait to see the progress on your farm and property! The mead looked fire

Thats a good idea, sometimes my blades get gunked up. I'll have to see if 99% rebbing alcohol will clean the blades.

What about using a hand axe to chop down the trees?
I have never tried that, but i would imagine it's a lot of hard work. Although it might come to that
👍
Do you have any experience growing food at this scale or are you starting from zero?
lmao got hearted and aired
It's been a month!! Any progress since this video? Curious to know
