Your video is a great reminder of the value of patience and perseverance. It takes a lot of time and effort to grow and harvest melons and oranges, but the end result is so worth it. And the fact that you're able to make a living by selling them at the market is even more impressive. Keep up the great work! And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
That’s what you call team work with your kids should be proud of yourself and of course your wife for the up bringing of your kids for that team work 👍👍👍👍
Watching from Las Vegas,Nevada and asking if it's possible to send a bag of your home grown taro my way. They so healthy. Ha Ha! Great great farming to you and family. Soifua.
You got something special going on there brother. Keep on doing what you do best at the farm. Them taros are insane. Would love to see the festivities and what sizes other farmers are bringing. Thanks for keeping farming alive and going. Hats off to you all farmers. 💯💯💯💯💯
That’s some awesome size taros guys. Great job planting and timing for harvesting. Outstanding lesson for the kids and they are excited to participate in the family tradition. Your kids are awesome. Thanks for sharing great videos.
Love watching ur clip reminds me of my old man back in Siumu 🇼🇸 hard working man,but some lazy people used to steal his taros Niue taro is no longer found, which was the top of the range, I wonder if I can get some thanks for sharing bro
I really like seeing your kids helping out. And yes, you’re right dad, at this stage, kids should offer. But I like what your daughter said, “I took one for the team” 😊 Lovely harvest. Glory to God. Thank you guys, for another great video for us to watch. Take care and God bless your family❤❤
Love watching your videos brother. taro plantation is awesome. In Samoa the pink taro is the better one funny enough we called it taro Niue guess they are from your island.. 🤔
Beautiful taro perfect timing. Aloha from Hawaii. I love to see you always have the kids helping. We teach them and they will continue caring for the land.
thank you very much for your taro planting skills and your children. It reminds me of watching my dad planting and harvesting taros when i was a child back in the 1950s.,before i came to NZ, but of course he had no vehicles in those days. It was all manual work.
I like watching ur video, beautiful Kalo plantation. I used to do that in Samoa before moving to New Zealand.,Good on your children working with your Dad
That is very , very exciting event of harvesting the fruits of your labour. Pehe atu e matua tane hau he kisia a koe fakalofa ha a koe ma mea. Your late father smiles from above how significantly you tend and applied those principles of farming your own grops. Awesome result of sacrifice.
As a kanaka maoli, the sight of your mala is both beautiful and depressing at the same time. Beautiful in that a field of kalo like this is what the few mahi'ai left here in Hawai'i wish to have, depressing in that the majority kanaka maoli no longer cultivates kalo to this extent, let alone has the ability or capability to do so . Excellent work and harvest, 'ohana. Keep up the good work.
Nice Kalos. I grow my Kalos in Planter Boxes b/c I mostly use the Leaves for Laulaus. But my question is that how do you grow it so "Big"? Unless I have a small type of variety that I am growing. Also, how often do you Water your Kalos? Or you would just let it Water from the Rain. Great Video and it shows that you and Wife did a great job raising your Kids. Aloha from Hawaii.
Hi there. The taro variety would matter on the corm size and also the material and setup you plant it in. Environment factors also affect its performance. I think they grow best in hot tropical climates for the taro root/corm size to be big. I know in New Zealand they grow big, but mostly leaves. The corm doesn't grow big at all. Maybe it is too cold there. It gets watered mainly by the rain for us here.
Love that niue taro. We used to grow it in Samoa but not anymore, after the taro plight of 1993. It's just wiped it out. New varieties are been researched and grow it. Not the same though.😊
In Samoa we used to have a purple taro like a couple of the taros you dug up and were the best tasting ones for the Fa'alifu (Boiled taro+fresh+coconut milk+salt+onions) Then taro disease eradicated it from Samoa. Fortunately the new types we now grow are just as great as that old Purple Taro we called The Taro from Niue.
how do you get big taro is it thee soil or the heat or both , sorry my name is terry and i am in or just outside melbourne in the suburb can you tell me how you manage to get such good taro i read up a lot about them and eaten a lot of them but i would just like to grow my own big ones thank you my son inlaw,s father came from niue but he didn,t learn about growing taro from him as he grew up in n.z so if you could just explain a bit about it once again thank you 🏝
Sir am really interested in this agricultural plantation and harvesting, can you hire me to come over there and perform many of this roles in your farm?.
