October 7–11, 2019—Our Ōhāhā intersession programs help high school students deepen kinship with ‘āina and local agriculture through ‘ike that will also help them flourish in life. Participants will:

• Learn from ‘āina and kūpuna, and engage in service learning
• Work on a farm and in lo‘i kalo (taro patch)
• Engage with a broad range of Hawaiian cultural protocols and sustainable agriculture practices
• Discover educational and career opportunities in agriculture to improve food security
• Gain deeper understanding of fulfilling kuleana to ‘āina, ‘ohana, and lāhui
• Receive a gift card worth up to $125 for successfully completing the one-week program and take home plants to grow in their gardens (or start one)!
