Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
Lucy and Michael met in New York City. Having grown up in New Zealand and passionate about art and creativity, Lucy loved the big city lights and excitement of New York. Michael, having grown up in New York City, craved a quiet life in nature. On one of their early dates Lucy asked Michael "What are you looking for in a relationship?" He surprised her with: "A wife to drag to a sustainable farm." At which point she thought - Well that's never going to happen! ... and continued on with her vibrant city endeavors ... until that is, they had a baby daughter and New York got locked down in 2020. Suddenly the only
thing that felt important was access to nature, food and family - and being in a big city during a crisis was not so appealing. Everything was falling right into Michael's hands! But where would they go? Upstate New York is beautiful, but far too cold, they very nearly moved to New Zealand but the lockdowns made moving impossible .. and so, by some form of a miracle, Maui came to mind and they never looked back!
After looking at potential properties for over a year, they finally found the perfect spot. Nestled in the Maui Jungle in the succulent neighborhood of Haiku they found their paradise. Blooming with every type of fruit tree imaginable and blossoming with dramatic tropical flowers, Kō Kō Sun Farm is a magical place that inspires creativity and magic.
As well as being a beautiful and nurturing place to raise a child, the farm also provides Lucy and Michael what they need to fulfill their creative spirits. While Lucy's passions and talents are visual arts & crafts and working with children, Michael is both an exceptional classical pianist, keen gardener and chef.
