Our Land Stewardship Approach for Hawaii’s Big Island
As a responsible land steward, Aloha Green has a long-term vision for a balanced community using principles of sustainability and planned development. We focus on direct settlement patterns that are viable and connected. We choose to honor Hamakua's historic and cultural assets by concentrating new development in existing, walkable, mixed-use town centers while limiting rural sprawl.
The company's vision includes a mix of agriculture, commercial, office, industrial, residential and conservation uses with a strong focus on the surrounding communities.
Our company’s principles
Aloha Green strives to meet the cultural, social, and economic needs of the Hamakua community. Our vision for the Hamakua Coast is directly in line with that of the long-range Hamakua Community Development Plan. Please refer to the Hamakua Community Development Plan website to learn more about the principles and objectives that Aloha Green would like to help realize.
The long-range vision for Aloha Green is to support the revitalization of the economy and serve as a positive catalyst for growth and economic sustainability while balancing the needs of Aloha Green, Hawaii County, and the East Hawaii community at large.
Our philosophy
The Aloha Green business philosophy is based upon principles of a worldwide model of planned communities called "Smart Growth". These principles require that governmental agencies, community planners, and developers work together to create growth management strategies to conserve special open spaces, greenbelts, historic sites, and cultural and natural resources while achieving the collective's long-term goals and business objectives.
