East Maui RLW Taskforce is dedicated to preventing rat lungworm disease through education for residents and visitors, and support for East Maui’s farmers and gardeners. As a program of Hawai’i Farmers Union United Hāna Chapter, we actively share education, tools and practices to identify and control the vectors that spread the disease, and safe food handling practices to protect consumers. In addition to taking these precautions in your own household, you can help fortify your community:
- Become a volunteer – We need educators and field support.
- Share the mana‘o – Talk about RLW in your ‘ohana, educate the keiki, and share with our visitors how to protect themselves during their vacation on Maui.
- Contact us to get a Vector Control Kit: Info@ratlungworm.info
To get in touch with a network devoted to supporting those who are affected by Rat Lungworm disease

Hale Pueo is located 1/4 mile from Hana town on a 3 acre homestead on the rural East side of Maui. We are blessed to be the custodians of this special part of the ‘last Hawaiian place’ since 1994, rich with cultural and spiritual significance.
The farm consists of an eclectic sampling of trees such as papaya, banana, cacao, coffee, inga, soursop, avocado, lychee, rambutan, jackfruit, surinam cherry, fig, star-apple, mango, mountain apple, durian, sapote, macadamia nut, starfruit, lemon, orange, lime, longon, mammoth loquat, ulu (breadfruit), noni and coconut. Our trees are nourished by the rain, rich volcanic soil and sunshine utilizing organic farming practices. Lilikoi (passion fruit), lemongrass, curry, pineapple and a smattering of herbs are also grown. A small nursery on the farm includes a variety of potted palms and other landscaping ornamentals as well as fruit tree starts for sale.
Free ranging chickens and ducks provide a few eggs and ambience but as we expand the flock, eggs should become plentiful. Coconut water is harvested and made into nutritious juices, blended with our organic lemons, oranges and lilikoi puree. Our Hana grown bananas, jackfruit, starfruit, and coconut are dehydrated and for sale at the Farmer’s market. Lilikoi butter is another favorite item sold. Hale Pueo is experimenting with a variety of new products as the trees mature and produce their bounty.
Find us at the Hāna Farmers Markets on Fridays!
“Our small homestead produces coconuts, pineapples, starfruit, jackfruit, citrus, banana, ulu, avocado and other nursery plants.
We create a variety of products from these ranging from juices, jams, and dried fruits.”

Magic Of Soil
“The Only Magic Material that Turns Death into Life.”
– SADHGURU
The Save Soil movement is about bringing humanity together to keep the magic of soil alive.
Soil is the basis of our lives. But…
Agriculture, deforestation, and other factors have degraded and eroded topsoil at alarming rates. Globally, 52% of agricultural land is already degraded. The planet is in crisis. If current rates of soil degradation continue, this would be the end of life as we know it.
Soil: A holistic solution
Almost every major ecological crisis is, to some degree or form, a consequence or symptom of the degradation of soil.Similarly, almost every environmental or environment-related pain point can be addressed by creating healthy soil.
It is, in fact, a fallacy to think we can address any one aspect of our environment without addressing the whole, because no aspect of the ecosystem functions in isolation. No solution is complete until we become conscious that life is one single complex phenomenon, all of which is happening in unison. In many ways, Soil is the underlying platform upon which life springs forth. If we fix soil, we have the best chance of fixing the whole.

SaveSoil.org
Aloha,
This is Mary Law… I am a resident of the Hana district and excited to be the local Save Soil representative here on Maui. Save Soil is a global initiative working to raise awareness of the need to press for incentives and laws that encourage improving soil organic matter and health. Currently we are organizing to help the public give input this fall into the US Farm Bill to improve soil over the next 5 years.
Here are some excerpts from http://www.savesoil.org:
- 52% of agricultural soils are already degraded.
- Over 2 billion people suffer from nutritional deficiencies.
- A tablespoon of soil contains more microbes than there are humans on the planet.
In this inclusive undertaking of Save Soil Movement, governments, UN agencies, global leaders, organizations, eminent members of the environmental and scientific community, corporate and individual citizens are uniting behind a common purpose to address the alarming crisis of Soil Extinction. For our children and future generations, it is critical to leave behind a planet capable of producing nutritious food and sustaining all life.
The Save Soil Movement will work toward this by:
- Turning the world attention to our dying soil.
- Inspiring about 4 billion people (60% of the world’s electorate of 5.26 billion) to support policy redirections to safeguard, nurture and sustain soils.
- Driving national policy changes in 193 nations toward raising and maintaining the organic content of soils to a minimum of 3-6%.
Everyone is encouraged to join and become an Earth Buddy to spread the word. Brochures, flyers, educational materials, and more are available in the Toolkit section of the website. Join us on social media to stay up on the latest activities or check us out when we are at the Hana Farmer’s Market. Save Soil!
