The Honaunau School garden, run by Melissa Chivers and Jessica Sobocinski, is more than just a place where flowers and vegetables grow; it is a living classroom where students and teachers can observe, interact with, and learn about the natural world that is responsible for supporting human existence on this planet.
Almost two years since it was completed, The Kohala Center’s Health Impact Assessment on Hawaii County’s Agriculture Plan has garnered national attention and helped produce meaningful effects on the local food system.

Exercise your hope in the future of our island planet by becoming a Friend of The Kohala Center.
Here's what one of our Friends says about The Kohala Center's Circle of Friends:
"For me, it's about community, about empowerment. I enjoy being part of a community that has the enormous potential to empower individuals—locally and globally—in ways that are tangible and that help to shape our island and our earth. Being a Friend is also about inspiration, about having passion for solutions to environmental and social problems that can, for me, sometimes feel too overwhelming. Sure, I do my part—I compost and recycle. But, in my affiliation with The Kohala Center, when I compost and recycle, I also know that I’m part of a larger vision. That’s hope, too."
Friendship means the fun of learning about our island world. And it means you will be supporting work that is both compelling and critically important to our future.
BE PART OF OUR CIRCLE OF FRIENDS TODAY!
