The Monkeypod Tree represents us as craftsman, employees, ohana, and residents of Hawaii in several ways. The Monkeypod tree is not only beautiful, but it has a really special presence in Hawaii. The Monkeypod tree has a single stalk and branches that spread into a wide canopy. They thrive in the Hawaiian Islands, more than any other place. Unlike other trees that kill the grass and other plants that live beneath them, the grass is always greener under the monkey pod tree, literally. Its leaves release nitrogen to naturally fertilize the soil beneath it.
Like the Monkeypod tree, Monkeypod Kitchen thrives on the spirit of the Hawaiian Islands. The aloha spirit nurtures everyone that acts under its canopy. By living aloha, and recognizing how lucky we are to live in Hawaii, we hope that the grass is always greener under the Monkeypod Kitchen tree.
