At Maui Nui, Jake Muise isn’t just producing venison–he’s redefining what sustainable, nutrient-dense food looks like. In this episode, Jake unpacks the ecological damage caused by invasive axis deer in Hawaii and how his company uses USDA-certified night harvesting to turn a problem into a protein solution. He explains the connection between deer diet, volcanic soil, and unmatched nutrient density, and how this wild-harvested meat supports both local communities and long-term environmental health. Listeners will come away with a clearer understanding of what “real” protein means–and why it could add a decade of quality movement to your life.
