Sign The Petition For Edible Food!
September 16, 2010 By Leave a Comment
A while back, a viral video from the Humane Society exposed the appalling practices of IHOP’s egg supplier and it made you want to give up eggs forever, or at least give up IHOP.
The truth is IHOP was unfairly targetted. True, you probably don’t want to go to a restaurant where the eggs are products of such horrible practices, but the real truth is it’s not limited to them. The eggs you get at the market could be products of the same practices.
And it’s not just the eggs. Do you really know where all your food comes from?

Successful Fundraiser And Membership Drive At Whole Foods Maui
June 27, 2010 By 1 Comment
We had a great day at our first fundraiser and membership drive at Whole Foods Maui in Kahului yesterday. The event was scheduled for 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and we sold out around 1:30 p.m.
Our menu consisted of two plate lunches, a grilled Maui Cattle Co. beef burger or a salmon burger served with homemade asian coleslaw, sweet potato fries and a beverage.
In all, we raised close to $700 for the cause and signed up about 30 people for the mailing list, several of whom verbally committed to helping the organization grow.
Special thanks to Chris and Becky Speere for bringing help in the form of two student chefs from the Maui Culinary Academy, to Tylun Pang, Executive Chef of The Fairmont Kea Lani and to Roxanne Tiffin, owner of Kula Fields for helping us make this a success.

During Harvest Day at the South Maui Sustainability Kihei Elementary School Garden project, Chef Nio Kindla talks about teaching the kids what food really is.
It’s not just us. Jamie Oliver shows how the kids in his Food Revolution series didn’t know anything about where food comes from either.
