"The Ho'oulu ka 'Ulu Project.“
Ho'oulu ka 'Ulu is a project to revitalize 'ulu (breadfruit) as an attractive, delicious, nutritious, abundant, affordable, and culturally appropriate food which addresses Hawai'i's food security issues. It is well known that Hawai'i imports about 90% of its food, making it one of the most food insecure states in the nation. Additionally, since the economic downturn of 2008, many families lack access to affordable and nutritious food. We believe that breadfruit is a key to solving Hawaii's food security problems.
The Crop Share!! at Mala'ai Culinary Garden at Waimea Middle School will continue every Saturday (12:30 to 3 pm) until August. See our Farmers Market & CSA website page for details and contact information.
