Waipahu Urban Agriculture Garden Project


Hui o Hoʻohonua

Welcoming you to the newest addition to HOHʻs community demonstration project, the Waipahu Cultural Garden project!

Located behind Waipahu Elementary School, this community demonstration idea was brought to us by CM Tulba. With the support of the City and County of Honolulu, we are looking forward to transforming this illegal dumping site into a food and medicine corridor to increase accessibility to fresh foods that will feed our neighbors.

There is much to do and we need many hands who are willing and able to join us in

  • Picking up and removing trash + debris
  • Weeding invasive vines, cali grass root balls, and other harmful vegetation
  • Watering and maintaining existing native flora
  • and more!

As we progress through the project, the needs will change.

We welcome you to join us on the first Saturdayʻs of the month from 8:00am-12noon. Please remember to bring:

  • Water Bottles
  • Closed toed shoes / Comfy clothes to get dirty
  • Sun Protection

About the organizer

Hui o Hoʻohonua is a community networking hub with three programs that serve the ʻEwa, Oʻahu communities of Honouliuli, Waipahu, and Mānana. Our hui works to combat social-environmental injustices that have impacted our ability to care for ourselves through land stewardship, public ʻāina based educational programming, and weaving a lei or partnerships that benefit Hawaiʻis agricultural properties and the people who have connection to these spaces.

We welcome volunteers from schools, organizations and businesses, community groups, individual/family units, and anyone else with a desire to give back to the place that gives us so much.
