Your Donation and Our Raffle

Mahalo (Thank you) for helping my family to heal our kinos, our aina, and to help us create a model for living pono with all who would like to learn to do so for themselves. Your donations will make it possible for us to accomplish several things 1) finish building our Living Laboratory for Living Pono. 2) Finish funding our family’s farm litigation that will protect our rights as organic farmers and as common neighbors from chemicals drifting on to our farm and that made our family sick. We know our legal efforts will help all organic farmers and neighbors protect their family's health, homes and bank accounts from the hard times my family has suffered. 3) Most importantly though, we will be able to keep buying my mom her medicine without incurring more debt.

We didn’t know how to really thank every one for their support, caring and love for us during our really challenging times. It's during these kind of times that you begin to understand what is important to you and what is not. So to show our deepest appreciation we want to share our treasures with those who are helping us. We decided to do that by gifting each of our $100 donors with a raffle ticket for a drawing that will offer stays on our farm and for our biggest treasure; our 1952 Ford F-3 truck.

The Raffle Prizes

Each $100 donation gifts you one ticket in our raffle. There will be 10,000 tickets gifted to donors (that's what we need to finish our projects).

We have 40 prizes: 39 one week stay certificates at our farm in our Organic Vacation Suites. You will have your choice of either our Ohana Suite or Our Kahua O Mali`o Suite and dates (black out dates unavailable). For the Grand Prize: A 1952 Ford F-3 Truck with Hydrolic Dump.

For every 250 donations of $100 we will draw a ticket for a one week stay on our farm in one of our Organic Vacation Suites, during the 2010 time period, you’ll have your choice of suite and week during the above time period as available (black out dates apply).

After 10,000 donations of $100 we will draw a ticket for the Grand Prize winner of the 1952 F-3 Truck.

The Grand Prize: 1952 Ford F-3 Truck with Hydrolic Dump

1952 Ford F3

Great American Vintage Classic

One of a kind Gem!

There’s a lot of American History in this truck, it started its life as a work truck at an upstate New York Farm, over the years as “Ole George” (as we call our truck), required parts and parts got harder to find, some interesting solutions were used; one such solution was replacing the gear shift with the door knob from the upstate New York’s 1800’s farmhouse that “George” used to belong to. We found that so charming we left it on the truck ‘til today.

The next owner of “Ole George” was also from upstate New York. He and his son and at times the woman of the house got involved in restoring “Ole George”, this was a family project that the entire family, and community embraced. It was at this time that the 1 ton custom hydro dump body was installed with hand made oak railings. You can see the love that has gone into this truck.

In 2004 “Ole George” was adopted by us on the North Shore of Oahu in Hawaii, from east coast to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, “Ole George”, traveled. Upon arrival we were awed by “Ole George’s” beauty and pristine condition, we immediately felt we were given a true treasure. Over the next few years, more updates and refinements were made from something as little as electric windshield wipers, from the original vacuum wipers, to hand honed engine parts so that the engine purrs at the first crank.

The V8 flat head engine is original to “Ole George” and probably runs better now then when it was bought new with all the TLC and precision work that was put into it by top engine mechanic on the island. To date, we have not seen anything like this beauty anywhere.

In 2004 Grundy, an insurance company who specializes in collectible cars appraised “Ole George” for $120,000; and that was before the truck had its additional upgrades.
