The event will feature a host of acclaimed musicians, including special guest Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac.

Shonnan Kozuch was hired as the new executive director of the Hua Momona Foundation, which provides food to those with food insecurity on Maui.

Hua Momona Farm, located high atop Kapalua, has launched Hua Momona Foundation, a non-profit that will provide food to those in need on Maui and introduce Maui’s youth to modern agriculture techniques relating to the growing and production of food.
