Now that the proposed sale of Grove Farm to a Honolulu developer has fallen
through, Grove Farm will be looking for buyers. We hope that Grove Farm will
see this as an opportunity to preserve Maha’ulepu for public use and not
include it in their sale.
They have been responsible stewards of this
exquisite piece of land for many years and now have an opportunity to extend
their role of protectors for future generations. There are many possibilities
that would provide Grove Farm with fair compensation for their land at
Maha’ulepu.
Maha’ulepu is such a wonderful resource for visitors and
residents that it should be preserved. It is an area of native shore plants,
native endangered seals and birds and with a section that, with excavation and
study, will be very interesting in helping to uncover the history of past
plants, animals and human life on this island. It is a stunningly beautiful
area for active recreation or just quiet contemplation.
I hope people who
are interested in keeping Mah’aulepu essentially as it is at present will let
their interest be known in letters to the paper and by joining with others who
are working to keep it so. Please call Malama Maha’ulepu at 828-1438 for more
information.
