It Challenge at Manele 8 I MOKULELEAIRLINES.COM Perking Right Along Coffees of Hawaii Celebrates 20 Years of Harvesting he next time you pour your morning cup of joe, you just might want to raise a toast and thank your coffee grower. Did you know, for example, that it takes three years from Tthe time that a coffee plant is at the seedling stage until the first harvest? Or that in Kona, every coffee cherry (the fruit that houses the bean) is handpicked? Thanks to our rich volcanic soil, warm climate and abundant rainfall, Hawai‘i is the only state in the U.S. where coffee can be grown commercially. In fact, it has now been 200 years since agriculturalist Don Francisco de Paula y Marin planted the very first coffee seedlings on Oahu. Coffees of Hawaii, headquartered on Moloka‘i, recently celebrated 20 years of coffee harvesting by hosting the Moloka‘i Coffee Festival. The event drew thousands of people to enjoy activities like plantation tours, coffee cupping and brewing workshops and music by local artists and the U.S. Air Force Band of the Pacific. The event was funded in part by the County of Maui. “The community came out in full force,” explains Maria Holmes, operations manager for Coffees of Hawaii. “It was amazing.” There was plenty of food, including a Souper Bowl 10 I MOKULELEAIRLINES.COM Issue 3 I 11 fundraiser hosted by the Moloka‘i Arts Center, and the festival even included a “Project Runway” contest, plantation-style. “We gave them burlap sacks and the mulch paper we use in the fields for weed control, and they made these fabulous outfits,” Maria says. “It was great!” Coffees of Hawaii is unique in that it is one of only four mechanized coffee farms in the state. “We do everything from seed to cup,” Maria explains. “We also buy unroasted coffee from growers around the state, so we really are the coffees of Hawai‘i.” “All coffee grown in Hawai‘i is Arabica, and the variety we grow is called Red Cataui,” she explains. Coffees of Hawaii’s Molokai-grown brands include Malulani Estate, Moloka‘i Island Princess and Muleskinner. It also produces brands such as Kona Nightingale, Maui Mokha and Hilo Kanilehua from coffee grown by other island farms. If you need proof of just how good this coffee is, you’ll be happy to know that it fuels our pilots. “We have all your pilots flying on our coffee,” says Pua Naeole, airport cafe manager.

Some of these include reflective surfaces Qike building facades and solar panels), zip lines, communications towers, wind turbines, other structure nearing 200 feet or higher, and wildlife habitats. As directed by the Airport Division, we should be looking for any ofthe above mentioned hazards that are proposed within 5 miles of an airport. Our GIS staffwill be adding a layer into the GIS system noting this 5 mile radius. lf we receive an application with a questionable hazard, we should report it to the HOOT Airport Division and require the applicant to provide a letter of no effect or approval with conditions from that division. Reflective surfaces and tower like structures are relatively easy to identi1Y, but wildlife habitats may DOt be as obvious.

It is a combination of all that is terrify­ ing and all that is beautiful, a blending of the awful with the magnificent. Lava-flows of centuries are piled high about a living volcano, which is set like a ruby in an emer­ ald bower of tropical grandeur. Picture a perfect May day, when glorious sunshine and smiling nature combine to make the heart glad; then multiply that day by three hundred and sixty-five and the result is the climate of Hawaii. Add to this the sweet odors, the luscious fruits, the luxuriant verdure, the flowers and colorful beauty of the tropics, and the Hawaii National Park becomes a dreamland that lingers in one's memory as long as memory survives.
