Pineapples from Hawaii.
James Dole was born on September 27, 1877 in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. He was the son of a Unitarian minister, Charles Fletcher Dole and his wife Frances Drummond Dole. Growing up, Dole attended Roxbury Latin School in West Roxbury, Massachusetts from which he graduated. In 1899, Dole obtained his bachelor degrees in agriculture and business from Harvard University. After receiving USD $50 as a gift, Dole began saving money for a future business he had in mind. After saving USD $16,240, Dole moved to Honolulu, Hawaii (then governed by his cousin Sanford, who had led the overthrow of the native queen Liliuokalani) and purchased land in the central plains of the island of Oahu.
