Cast of Characters

My policy is not to use the names of friends, guests, wanderers, public persons, etc. in these posts.   If people want to raise their hands to say “I was here” – they can leave comments, with or without photos.   All are welcome.

However, there are a few folks who are major players at our farm.  Their names show up, and I want you to know who they are.

.

AUSTIN – my sweet husband for the last 100 years or so.  Dr. Smarty Pants.

AKKA – number one son.  Was here, left, has returned.

KIKI (nickname for Keith) – our adorable grandson. Akka and Monica’s first child.

JUNIA – (Eminoni Raivoka Jr.)  Dear family friend who spent 10 years working in the Baha’i gardens in Israel (“serving, not working” he reminds me).   Now he is at the farm “serving” as our farm manager.

NICOLE – (Mrs. Raivoka now!)  Came as a permaculture intern, and got caught!

KEANU – He is Junia Jr. Nicole and Junia’s number one (and so far – Only) son.

VINA – our original kitchen angel !

ASHMITA – our second kitchen angel !

ERONI – Newest addition to the farm. He was also working in the Baha’i gardens in Israel, and after his service he asked if he could work here. Lucky us!
