Benefits of Hawaiian-Style Farming

The ancient mahiʻai (Hawaiian farmer) did more than just cultivate food. These masters fostered an intimate relationship with their natural environment—from the soil and plants to the weather patterns and lunar cycles. This deep connection not only affected the way they grew food, but also how they made sense of the world around them.

We are growing several endemic and native species, along with many traditional Hawaiian foods known as “canoe crops” because they were carried in the voyaging canoes of the early Polynesians who populated these islands.

Practices include growing in loʻi kalo (flooded terraces for growing taro), planting according to the kaulana mahina (Hawaiian moon calendar), and other cultural protocols.
