Seven years ago my husband and I moved to the Big Island of Hawaii. We had both spent the majority of our lives on the mainland and were used to the convenience of living there. One day, I went down the yogurt aisle and found it void of yogurt. When I asked the cashier about it she said that the yogurt was expected to arrive in a few days. The Big Island depends heavily on shipments coming into its harbor. There are so many things that can cause disruption to the island… tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes, flash flooding, wild fires, volcanic eruptions, and those are just the natural disasters!
We started storing away food, supplies, and other things needed for survival. But right now our biggest focus is storing away skills. Years ago the locals were not as dependent on the harbors for survival. We have been working to develop skills so we can live off the land. From growing our own food and saving seeds, to processing my own coconut oil and coconut flour. My next project is gathering kiawe pods and grinding them into flour. Not only have we gained confidence in our ability to use the food the island provides, but we have also tried many new recipes that we love!

What a challenge it must be to have to rely so much on imports in order to survive life in the islands. I think we who are in the states forget what it is life for you there as we go to the grocery store and everything magically appears on the shelves. Good on you for taking the time to not only start storing all of the food in preparation for whatever may come your way, but also for taking your natural resources and finding ways to make them work for you in every day living as well! Keep up the good work!

What is kiawe? And does it taste good, as a flour base?
Jeanette · April 11, 2012 at 6:27 am
Kiawe is a variety of mesquite that grows in Hawaii. I live on the dry side of the island and these trees are everywhere. I haven’t tasted it yet but is it supposed to be very sweet.
Here is some info…

I think that it is wonderful that you have found a way to survive off of the natural resource that are available to you. Back to the basics, and I love it. It’s hard to break the cycle when you have been brought having everything at your fingertips.

I’m interested in this Kiawe pod flour–with so many people forced to eat gluten free diets, I’m wondering if this is a great alternative.

I live in Maine but I am ALL FOR living as self sufficiently as possible. We grow our own food, can or freeze for later months. I think more people should learn this. The land, at one time, provided everything a person would need for survival. It’s good to get back to those roots and learn how to do this, because you just never know these days 😉

Ditto Jessica, what is a kiawe pod??
Jeanette · April 19, 2012 at 6:55 pm
Kiawe is a type of mesquite tree that grows here in Hawaii. They produce long bean-like pods. Which usually just fall to the ground unused. Kiawe trees are also very thorny so picking the pods takes some care.

Your parents are good examples of this.

They let me come and visit and I was able to cook a thai curry with 70% of the food coming from their backyard.

Learning how to be self sufficient is good for everyone, not just those who are somewhat isolated.
JJ · April 26, 2012 at 2:27 am
My family of 7 was able to live for months off of our garden while my dad was in between jobs.
JJ · April 26, 2012 at 2:29 am
Learning the history of your area and how the people there lived before supermarkets and refrigeration is also helpful.
