A Month on the Farm


Over four weeks, haumāna rotated through daily blocks that built practical and cultural skills:


  • Farm Work: Soil prep, planting, mulching, watering, harvest hygiene

  • Animal Husbandry: Daily care routines, feed planning, humane handling

  • Lei Making: Respectful gathering, selection, technique, and design

  • Knot Tying: Useful knots for farm tasks, safety, and equipment setup



Hō‘ike Highlights


Families and community members gathered as students explained their processes and showcased projects—turning the month’s work into a hands-on, visible progress report.

"A summer of skills, culture, and connection"
