Maui Organic Farm

Shangri La means heaven on earth and this farm lives up to it's name. My husband and I met here 8 years ago and went back to celebrate our 2 year wedding anniversary. If you saw Willy Wonka, the first one with Gene Wilder, it was like the scene when he opened up this door to a paradise where you could eat everything...even the dishes. That is what it felt like. The air smelled like flowers and ripe fruit. The grounds are breathtaking and majestic. This was the view from our room with a huge V of ocean, saying you are HERE! You can rent room if you take organic farming classes like composting, seeding, what to do with worms:) Our room was $120 and more like a two story house. They have a 3 ozone Jacuzzis, a warm salt water pool, infrared sauna and a waterfall if you repel down a pretty gentle cliff. We did it with our little dog in my husbands shirt like a kangaroo. It was a beautiful lifetime fit into in 24 hours.
