…the sugar mill. Much of the history of 1830s Hawaii until tourism took over in the 1950s is tied up in the history of the cane sugar industry here.
Maui is the only Hawaiian island that still supports a viable sugar company and rumor is that they might not hang on for very much longer. This is one of two Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar Company’s mills on Maui.
One of my Botswana safari companions was a sugar commodities trader and now I wish I had talked to him more about sugar!
