Beach To Farm | Joel Centeio Living off grid in Hawaii

Propeller USA presents 「BEACH TO FARM」
Pro Surfer Joel Centeio lived at right front of his favorite surf point Haleiwa beach, North Shore of Oahu in Hawaii. But 3 years ago, he decided to move to off grid land in Waialua. The movie explores what sustainability means for him and Hawaii.

I remember Joel well from Barber's pt when I was a lifeguard there. Glad to see he's doing so well, great kid and surfer.

[@simplysimple7628]

Love it when kids are interested in the outdoors. Especially gardening. Such a wholesome and productive way of living. Rewarding actually. Beautiful!!

[@MsTillie96]

Watching this absolutely fulfills my heart. I couldn’t stop crying. May God bless your family fruitfully

[@tracyalan7201]

Awesome. Good to see local families being smart and doing things as a family and living off the grid. It looks like you're doing very well. Best wishes for continued success. It's a nice property and splendid work done by everyone.

[@charlieduvall6463]

Classic stuffs, you guys rule. Best way ever for the groms to grow up. Learning about the outdoors and being in nature.

[@veerchasm1]

I’ve been prepping to live like this for the last few years. Just beautiful

[@curiousnomadic]

Total respect for you guys. I was just thinking that, that Oahu could be self sustainable. Living on a 3 day supply and turning everything into residential is just wreckless.

[@waimeagrl5142]

The pandemic was the perfect time for our government to push and support all of our amazing farmers, ranchers, and fisherman, but instead they were more concerned about when tourists could come back to start filling up those hotel rooms again. Our government preaches sustainability, but they’re really not interested.

[@curiousnomadic]

@@waimeagrl5142 Trust me, everyone knows about how bad the government in Hawaii is when they do nothing about the outrageous rent and ballooning cost of living. Not to mention the reprehensible way Ige behaved over the TMT issue. However, it is totally up to farmers and fisherman to remake the aina and not worry about the tourists (they'll come and buy some). There's still plenty of land that is in your hands and plenty of time to discourage development since it presents a serious security risk. Mainlanders 100% support Hawaiian farmers, fisherman, ranchers (and hunters). If you need any help from us just let us know. I sure would love some smoke meat again.

[@alisab63]

LOVE!!! This right here is the way we should all live. Those kids are the cutest - what a great life they have!

[@Incommumfilms]

Watched this film on the airplane coming to US; incredible, so inspiring!

[@8675-__]

You are extremely inspiring! I'm very touched by your beautiful, intelligent children. They have a future in Hawaii and will thrive because of your guidance. May God bless your journey my brother. And keep you all safe and out of harms way.🙏🙏🙏

[@karinatorrado718]

Very inspiring!! I just returned from a 2 months stayed in Oahu, visiting and learning as much as I could from that beautiful paradise you guys live in. That land is so rich and productive! I could see the similarities with the place where I grew up in Colombia with mountains and fresh produce all year. It’s wonderful what you guys are doing! I wish I saw this video one week ago so I could visit you guys. My best wishes for that family goal you have. Blessings

[@Aoudhubillahi]

I honestly am reluctant to share this because they have so much love with them that I wouldn't want to even place this vid somewhere were negative energy or trolling could access this. Man, this was so nice.

[@darinbennett3638]

Thanks for sharing their story. Beautiful people inside and out. Great example of family-time and the benefits of raising a family that understands self sufficiency.

[@-sensibleChris]

Even though the beaches are beautiful, I would prefer the higher elevations also. This lifestyle is especially beautiful. I really admire this family.

[@bizzybee852]

Happy to see Christian families striving and thriving even through the hard parts. Wonderful to have your entire family together. That is my prayer and my dream, to have a farm where all three of my children and all five grandchildren can live close together. God bless you all, you have a new subscriber, I really enjoyed watching your story. And boy.......what a beautiful place to live. The Bible says we are not to envy, you guys make that a tough one!

[@KimroyBailey]

Admire and envy are too different things...envy the good without wanting get it by forcefully taking it from others or making yourself miserable if you don't have it..but wanting to have good things for yourself... nothing is wrong with that and other people can open your horizon

[@deanapan8413]

I Live in the tropics (Taiwan) and so happy to see this, especially a Christian family! We need more to encourage each other! What a blessing!!! God bless

[@kalani63]

Awesome. This is what a true blessing is!! Materialistic things can never compete with the joy that this family has living this lifestyle.

[@TabukieDapVlogs]

💯💜🇯🇲

[@jacobr4558]

How much do you think that land costs? More than any house most people can afford.

[@coachgilman372]

Joel, you are inspiring me. Mahalo nui! Your family...so awesome. I am going to look into this. To go off grid.

[@PNWOutdoorAdventures]

This is so beautiful. Congrats on all your accomplishments!

[@patrickpalacio2047]

Living the dream!!! I would say you are a very successful man Joel because of your family values and good friends and the way you are living off of the land. Just how our Heavenly Father planned for us to live from the very beginning. Aloha!!!

[@troykomoda2267]

Love it! Exactly what I always dreamed of doing!

[@itsachannelname9169]

Amazing. Thanks for sharing this. Gave me goosebumps!

[@propellerusa]

Mahalo! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JESSEMERLEJONES]

Love Joel,Ashley and fam. They're the best people

[@prioritymaleman]

This is a fantastic story about an amazing family (ies...I guess 2 families...). I'm struck by the dedication and faith of these guys...not caught up in the nonsense of our culture...focusing on the basics of faith, family, friends and farming! Great video thanks.

[@kailani808]

“nonsense of our culture”?? Since when is learning, appreciating, & perpetuating the cultural traditions of our kupuna considered “nonsense?” What an absolutely insensitive and jackassery remark!!

[@8675-__]

May God continue to bless you and your families 🙏🙏🙏

[@8675-__]

@kailani maybe he's talking about the constant and ongoing DIVISION of Hawaiian people. Caused by a lack of education, inexperience, political turmoil, and misunderstanding of other people. I have never experienced so much hatred and violence in such a beautiful place as in Hawaii. It's a shame it's that way. Especially for children, they shouldn't grow up learning hatred for others.

[@nancyperry932]

Wonderful to see happy beautiful families 💚

Where in Hawaii are you living? It's so beautiful. I see videos of Hawaii but nobody tells what Island and where. You have an amazing garden. We try to live the same way here in Show Lo Arizona.

I want to be a farm hand in Hawaii. I live in the mainland. I have no experience in farming but I need to get back down to mother earth.

[@erickr.8977]

Trust me this video makes it out to be easy, simple etc..... If you don't have well over a million dollars in the bank then Hawaiʻi is not the place for you because even if you may want to live sustainably and off the grid its still expensive as f*ck. You are way better off in the mainland than in Hawai'i.

[@erickr.8977]

@Art of Hookie Ok? I never said there wasn't.

[@jennyanimal9046]

I'd like to see this type of living for the Natives who are increasingly becoming homeless

No horses ?? What’s a farm without horses ?

Great job you are doing. Kindly collect all the rabbit urine and spray it on plants to control pests.

[@obijuankenobi420]

How do you collect it ?

[@kagolobyadalton5773]

@@obijuankenobi420 Put an ion sheet under the cage pointing to a basin or small tank. You will empty it every after five days. And apply on your plants you will be surprised

[@ana419]

This is a beautiful, healthy lifestyle, but I wonder how they provide general culture to their children, such as knowing what an opera or a classical concert is, or how to dine at a fine restaurant or behaviour etiquette in a formal setting, so that when they are adults, they will have a full gamut of options open to them, whatever their life choices may be.

[@JanSmithGlobalFamily]

Really? My opinion is if one never went to an opera or classical concert, it wouldn't reduce their quality of life. In the end, it is all about man's relationship with man, man's relationship with himself, and man's relationship with God.
