  • Visit wahi pana, learn from kūpuna, and engage in service learning
  • Work in lo‘i kalo (taro patch) and loko i‘a (Hawaiian fishpond)
  • 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)!
