Who is Lily Cabinatan?

Lily Cabinatan, a proud Wai‘anae High School graduate and retired teacher and administrator with the Hawai‘i Department of Education, has spent the past 20 years deeply connected to the land as a chemical-free farmer in Mā‘ili. Specializing in Meyer lemons and mangoes, she applies sustainable Korean mulch farming techniques and natural fertilizers like chicken manure to cultivate her crops. Lily’s hands-on approach includes using simple water sprays to deter pests, reflecting her dedication to clean, environmentally conscious farming.

Top Notch Fruits & Chickens, founded by Lily in Waiʻanae, Oʻahu, is a sustainable, family-run farm known for producing fresh, chemical-free fruits and pasture-raised eggs. The farm stands out not only for the exceptional quality of its produce but also for its heart-centered mission. Lily donates all of the farm’s modest profits to support the local community—contributing to homebuilding efforts through Waiʻanae Puʻuhonua O Mauka and awarding scholarships to students in Waiʻanae, Nānākuli, and Nānāikapono. Top Notch is more than a farm—it’s a model of how agriculture can nourish both people and purpose, with a legacy Lily hopes to pass on to her grandchildren.
