What to expect

Travelers will begin by touring 1 acre of our apple banana tree collection. . Our apple banana trees are located in the Hawaiian rainforest on the east side of the Big Island. Our property is located on an 800 year old lava flow. It includes over 200 apple banana trees along with a number of other tropical plants. We will discuss our planting and cultivation techniques with you. We will give you a hands-on opportunity to propagate live trees, examine the inner stem and harvest the fruit directly from our banana tree collection! Once a banana tree bears fruit it must be cut down, travelers will be able to do the cutting. They will cut open the inner stalk to see the core which is edible. After harvesting the fruit directly from the tree, travelers will enjoy a sample of green bananas with green banana tea.
