Who wants to talk about #hawaii #mangos ?
I got these fresh off the tree from a cattle #farmer They grow in his pastures. Mangos top left, clockwise to bottom:
White Piri, Repoza, Gold Nugget. #tropicalAgriculture #GrowSomeShit #farm #farmToFace

I know it's not possible to grow them in some places, but sorry, the things you call bananas in the grocery store aren't actually good anyway. Bananas allowed to ripen before harvesting are miles beyond a commercial Dole Cavendish. Much like battery laid eggs vs home grown eggs, I can't eat a store bought Dole Cavendish. #FoodSystem #TropicalAgriculture #eat #grow

I planted/let rot a pumpkin 6+ years ago and I've never planted pumpkins since. Idk if they survive winter or pop up from fruits I didn't find, but I let them do their thing. I do pull up runners with roots and poke them around the farm, but the most prolific vines grow near the goat barn. They climb trees and sprawl over bushes, one of the few things that give the jungle a challenge. Just this year, I've started hand pollinating, but I've had more pumpkins than I can possibly eat, every year. I sell them, give them, and eat them. I feed them to chickens and use them in many recipes. We have a hard time growing most squash in this area, but this #localkine kobocha type fruit does pretty well.
He'e (octopus)for scale. 😆 #permaculture #TropicalAgriculture #homesteading #FoodForest #gardening #plants

Suriname cherry is covered in blossoms right now, I will make preserves with the bulk of them once the fruit is ripe.
And also: this is the first year that my loquat tree is big enough to finally produce fruit! So excited! #TropicalAgriculture #FoodForest #homesteady #hoodsteading #fruit #trees #hawaii #farm #plants
