Announcing New Maku'u Growers Co-op

Whether you have a few loaded trees in your yard or a full fledged
farm, we can help you get your produce to market and make some money.
We are currently accepting growers in the area around Maku'u market
into this newly forming co-op.

The idea is simple - you harvest your trees and we pick up that
harvest the evening before market. You set your price, we keep 25% of
sales, remaining costs and profits are split between members according
to what sells each day.

You no longer have to feel bad about fruit rotting on the ground -
we'll make it easy to get more local produce to local markets, to
build local economy and increase our island's food security. We can
also talk about other homemade products like jams, pesto, and other
treats. We are looking for pesticide free growers only and look
forward to hearing from you!

Mahalo,
Mary & Sean Jennings
