Ma Ka Hana Ka 'Ike In Working, One Learns // Maui Hikina

🔨 Hāna Build
🌱 Mahele Farm
🌕 Mālama Hāloa
🍠 Kahu ʻAi Pono

We are the Building and Kahu ʻAi Pono (Culinary) Programs and school gardens at Hāna School, the community garden of Mahele Farm, and the kuʻi kalo and loʻi restoration program, Mālama Hāloa. Our non-profit organization’s mission is to provide Hāna youth with a way to learn that makes sense to them, builds their self-esteem, and shows them they have the power to change their futures. This mission

is built upon the core pillars of education, sustainability, community health, and cultural fortitude, as we work to meet the real needs of our East Maui communities. Our core values:

PILINA (Connection): Through inclusive communications and trusting relationships, we connect in meaningful ways to harness individual passions and carry out our work together. KŌKUA (Assistance): We are rooted in Hāna and intentional in our contribution to community health through mālama of our kūpuna, ʻōpio, keiki, and aloha ʻāina. HIKI NŌ (ʻCause can!): Our work ethic drives us to action—and to instill this value in our youth. We do what no one else thinks is possible, in ways that may not be conventional, to leave things better than we found them.
