Sustainable Sandalwood Farm | Big Island, Hawai'i

[@trieubui7441]

I never get tired of seeing Taku fillet a fish.

[@MultiCorker]

Justin is so knowledgeable and very well spoken. Props to him and his family for being such good stewards of the land, especially this very special place. Thank you so much!

[@chadjackson5470]

Living life can be so great. Your life may not be as adventurous or as grand as Taku and Jocelyn's. Most of us have hectic 40 or more hour a week jobs or we are barely making it in life. With all of the craziness going on in this world it is still a joy seeing Jocelyn and Taku each week on both channels showing us what's out there and possible. It sure puts a smile on my face at the end of the day!

[@jimm4533]

I've lived in Oahu for over sixty years and continue learning about Hawaii's beauty. This posting has been my favorite of both channels. Content like this is so great and informative. Mahalo, Ryan, Justin, Taku, and Jocelyn. T&J, may the rest of your travels be blessed and full of adventure! 🌴🌴

[@sabrinahernandez4306]

I loved learning about the trees and eco system. Thank you for including that in the video. 😊

[@pheavoeng8885]

Ryan with the kill and taku chefing it up! What can be better that this combo on a plate!

[@SirKibblestein]

This has been one of my favorite videos from you two! It feels like a more personal version of OCL, and it makes it feel even more cozy 😊

[@whataname01]

I've been watching him since the beginning and this guy is truly living the life that I dreamed of but never able to do so of course I envy his life style but at least I get to come along and live that virtually online. Thanks man!

[@OmgWtfTsuji]

It's a nice surprise to see you guys out on my island

[@pchinnIII]

This episode captured the mellow feeling you get when you are in Hawaii. There is that island thing of "Don't Worry Be Happy" Nice to learn something about a sandalwood farm. Hope that works out for the reforestation of those native trees. I feel like there is a need to return to the ways of the indigenous people. Taku is an artist with the talent, love and creativity to make food taste and look beautiful. I look forward to the New Zealand episode, a place I have always wanted to visit

[@outlawpat8038]

[@artkitzmiller957]

This was fantastic! You, Jocelyn, Ryan and Justin, I can not wait to see what you have in store for us. By the looks on the guys faces I am surprised they are letting you leave for NZ. They are only use to eating their own cooking. lol. I use to live in Hawaii and have been to NZ so I I am eagerly awaiting to see them again.

[@plor1261]

[@bwayne40004]

Look forward to a bunch of cool travel videos.

[@Kricille]

Mahalo for sharing this educational video. Justin provided so much information on him and his purpose with the reforestation project. Makes me miss home (Hawaii) even more.

Hi Guys! Just watched your Alaska series…..loved, my faves however are all the mushroom foraging….love the one w/ the Omakase on the yacht!. Happy to see you are here in Hawaii. I hope you guys have a a meet up if you’re ever on Oahu. Mahalo for all the great content 🤙🏻🌸💗🌴

[@juscrank8087]

Glad you got to see a part of our home most people don’t get to experience including people who have lived there their entire lives. The Lee family have been doing great things up there. Just fyi, most locals don’t eat knife jaws often as they do have ciguatera so enjoy it in moderation lol. Can’t wait to see more Hawaii content.

What alternate universe is this I had no idea u had another channel. Had sandlewood soap before. Good stuff. Not sure, but I think Hawaii has milkfish in their waters ? Or giant ladyfish

[@parttime9070]

Interesting video.. This guy will be up in his 80's by the time the trees are big enough to cut, I grow a variety of 'Sandalwood' it takes 30 years to even grow to a size that has a core worth harvesting.. When they started cutting up there (1990), the trees that got cut down were old, as in many 100's to 1000's of years old.. Back 200 year's ago they left all the big tree's at the top of there range thinking that the seeds will repopulate the forest... That never happened.. Using helicopters to fly loggers in and cut down old trees was greedy to the extreme.. Also keep in mind Sandalwood is in the poison oak family and some people can be highly allergic to the oil..
