2025 HACA Council Board Members

Linda Brush
President
My name is Linda Brush. I was asked to join the HACA board in December 2023. I am a semi retired bus driver and I’ve lived in and loved Hawaiian acres since 2012. I was a weekly vender at our farmers market selling kombucha, plants, and produce from my farm. I’m super excited to be part of this extraordinary team who will be responsible for rebuilding the community center, restoring the farmers market, and creating a certified kitchen for our community!

Angelic Ebbers
Vice President
Aloha, I've been a property owner in Hawaiian Acres since 2004. I'm a software engineer, specializing in real-time controls for telescopes on Mauna Kea. I'm running for a director position on the HACA Council because after joining several recent community events, I've been inspired by the dedication and honesty of the incoming board and would like to contribute. I believe that the most important challenges in front of the board include rebuilding the community center, providing a farmers market venue and building our commercial kitchen.

Sandy Margriter
Treasurer
Sandy Margriter has been a land owner and resident of Hawaiian Acres for more than three decades. She retired as a Geographic Information System (GIS) Specialist from the National Park Service in 2022. She currently co-owns and manages Mahina Acres, a small hobby farm with tropical fruit trees and heritage breed chickens. She wholeheartedly believes that growing and sharing food forges a stronger, more resilient community. When the opportunity arose for a grant to build a certified shared-use kitchen in Hawaiian Acres, she jumped at the chance to help apply for it. A growing frustration over the lack of progress on the community center rebuild led her to join the board of the Hawaiian Acres Community Association last May. She is currently running for Vice President of HACA and will appreciate your support.
