Mahele Farm

 Mahele Farm is, in the words of my friend Mikala, "a living farm".  Mahele means to share, to divide. For the past few Sunday's I have been photographing the people who come to Mahele to work for a few hours and take home a box of fresh, organic veggies, fruits, and whatever else the garden gives. Kids, parents, and grandparents weed, plant, and harvest side by side in the dirt rain or shine, and on the East side it rains and shines most days.

These past few weeks I have been photographing the Ma Ka Hana ka ike boys at work. Ma ka Hana is a non profit organization that's building has enriched the Hana community in many ways over the years. This winter they are building a new home for a Hana family whose house recently burned down. I am working on a multimedia projects, that should be finished in the next month.

























Water Rescue

 Last time I was on the North Shore a man went missing at Sunset Beach. His surfboard washed up on shore but he was nowhere to be found. The Sunset and Honolulu firemen searched for him for the required 3 days. This is the first day.
