There’s something powerful about being able to grow our own food, prepare it with our own hands, and carry on the practices of our kūpuna.

Through our Board & Stone workshops, ʻohana are building the tools to continue a cultural practice at home, share it with their families, and pass that knowledge on to the next generation.

One papa and pōhaku at a time 🌱

Our Mōhala Youth Culinary Program haumāna have come a long way in the kitchen! 👩🏽‍🍳👨🏽‍🍳

Saturday's Hōʻike gave them the opportunity to put their skills to work, preparing and serving dishes made with locally sourced ingredients. From everything they've learned over the past several weeks to the meals they proudly shared with their ʻohana, it was a great way to celebrate how far they've come!

And they're not done yet! Mark your calendars for November 11, when our haumāna will sell their culinary creations at the Mōhala Mākeke. Stay tuned for more details!
