In our fourth multi-grantee episode, we hear from three organizations working to restore ahupuaʻa systems and perpetuate ʻike kupuna about ʻāina stewardship on three different islands.
First, on Molokai, we hear from Hano and Maile Naehu at Hui o Kuapā about their work to restore loko iʻa and grow a new generation of modern konohiki.
Second, we go to East Maui to hear from Jerome Kekiwi, Jr. from Nā Moku Aupuni o Koʻolau Hui, a group representing kalo farmers that restored taro-feeding streams from commercial diversions and continues to steward their waters.
Finally, we head to Kona, Hawaiʻi, with Loke Aloua at Hui Kaloko-Honokōhau. The kiaʻi loko of the hui dedicate themselves to preserving and advancing the natural and cultural resources of Kaloko Fishpond and protecting the ecosystem that sustains it.
