About our name…
We LOVE bamboo for many reasons. The sound of the wind in the leaves, the sustainability, and we’re building a home out of it! Check out Bamboo Living for more info. If you ever get the chance, put your ear against a stalk and listen to the tops of the stalks knocking together. Such a cool sensory experience!!
Not only is bamboo beautiful, but it’s an eco-friendly choice for addressing current environmental concerns and sustainability in various industries. Bamboo can be used in everything from toothpicks to building construction!
Because bamboo has rapid growth, amazing strength, and versatility, it is an ideal choice to replace wood. Some of the environmental advantages of using bamboo include both high ability to sequester carbon dioxide and low environmental impact when compared to traditional wood forests. We believe the use of bamboo should be a part of every green lifestyle!

Our Hawaii story (the short version)
In 2014 we visited Maui for the first time. As with most people, we instantly fell in love with Hawaii. Over the next few years we visited each of the islands. Then in 2019 we decided we weren’t getting any younger and purchased three acres on the island of Hawai’i (also known as Big Island). We chose the windward side because it’s more lush, green, and tropical due to the higher rainfall. When we walked around the land before making an offer, we both had an overwhelming feeling that it was the right place. To this day it still feels magical.
