I'd like to start a go fund me page for Kai and his farm to raise the funds needed to have a well drilled on his property. The island of Maui sits on an aquifer, so Kai could build a well and have all the water he needs but the cost is outrageous as there is only a few companies on the island who can do this, and of course they can charge whatever they want. Natural farming, coconut knowledge, and tasting tours by appointment. There is plenty of water to go around but for some reason its being diverted to other areas.

The owner, Kai or Ky (sorry I don't know the correct spelling) was passionate in explaining the differences in life cycles from young coconuts to mature coconuts, how the process of making authentic coconut milk occurs and the steps required. Loved this agro-tour in learning about the life cycle of a coconut.
