The following of "Where's The Water, Brah?"
May 26, 2009 | 12:52 PM

I know how hard it is to raise the taro. I am going to be a taro farmer when I get older. When I am 18, I am moving to keanae to be a tarofarmer.It is an honor to be this. Take after my family. My great grandfather built the house I am going to live in. There is not enough water to raise the taro. I am a Maui girl myself. If we don't have water, the taro will die. Taro is one resource to feed the ohana. The lehua and moi will die and there won't be much to eat. We'll only have homegrown fruits and vegetables and animals like cows. So, as you can see we need the water for our taro.
