Our Story

Ohana Aina, LLC (Hawaiian for "Family Land") was founded by Hawaiian born and raised Melissa Pankas in January, 2015. Ohana Equestrian Preserve was created to preserve open space, celebrate Virginia's proud equine tradition and to share the facility with the community. The ‘ohana’ concept carries with it a certain responsibility, an obligation to take care of those in your circles, as they take care of you.

 

 

To John and Tess Jubinsky, who swore they never would be Virginia landowners, we are so thankful you changed your mind! Without you, Ohana would never be.

Luke originally comes from southern California but met his wife who is from Virginia and now resides here.     He has had his hands in different trades such as doing professional hair styling and has also volunteered overseas for humanitarian work for several years.   He was drawn to Ohana EP because of our focus in helping preserve the land and in giving back to our local community.  Luke now works with us to help create efficient and sustainable approaches for the care of the land and it’s operations.  He takes pride in ensuring the safety of our visitors that come to Ohana EP and that they have a great experience wile they’re here.
