After more than 17 years of dedicated service, we bid a fond farewell to Jim Heid, Grand Wailea’s Landscaping Manager since 2008. Jim has played a vital role in shaping the lush landscape that surrounds us, cultivating not just our gardens but also a deep connection to the land. His collaboration and insight on the role of landscaping were essential during the inception of the resort, and through his beloved Garden Tours, Jim generously shared his manaʻo, offering guests a window into our “resort farm to table” philosophy, where native plants and fruits grown on property become ingredients in our culinary experiences. Mahalo nui loa, Jim, for your stewardship, your wisdom, and your unwavering care. Your legacy will continue to bloom across these grounds for generations to come.
