Mālama Pono Garden cultivates young people who love, respect, and care for themselves, their community, and the earth while increasing food security and improving health outcomes in our school and the wider community. The garden is a sanctuary for learning and discovery, where students can explore the natural world, understand their place within it, and learn to care for and provide for their community. Students come to this living classroom to apply key concepts in natural sciences mathematics, language arts, fine arts, and social studies while engaging in Hawaiian cultural practices and protocols. The garden serves as a valuable resource for sustainable food and living knowledge in the school and wider community.
