This is a pineapple field in Maui. They still do private stock growing here for labels other than Dole. Private label pineapple is the only canned pineapple now available. If you live in California, try the Springfield brand found in many stores.
Personally, I think that MAUI grown pineapples are better than those grown on Oahu.

These special areas are the experimental growing grounds for Dole's horticultural experts in an ever increasing study of the properties of pineapples. Here they have conducted studies on diseases, hybrid plantings and seek always to improve maximum growth in minimum time.

This is known as a pineapple pattern in quilting circles because it resembles the individual segments of a pineapple. I will put up a large pineapple and you take a good long look at the individual segments, each is a part of the whole.
Thus a pineapple fruit is made up of many individual clusters to form the whole fruit. Not unlike the segments of an orange or grapefruit, these 'cells' are all independent entities which reach into and from a central core.

This is a train ride that you can take through the pineapple plantation.
The cost was $7.50 per adult. I did not go on it, but I am sure it was interesting ride on a cute train.

Just gives you an idea of how many miles of pineapples there are in a single well maintained field. These are still in the early stage.
