ALOHA
One Island is a non-profit sustainability project with a flagship organic farm in Honaunau, Hawaii. We are hosting collaborative Green Living programs focused on learning to practice a more sustainable lifestyle right where you live and work, every day.
‘Green is a Verb’ and that means it is an empowering action
Programs focus on short, easy-to-implement and longer term strategic sustainability efforts including: renewable energy / energy efficiency projects, sustainable agriculture farm and garden exhibits, native plant features, watershed resources, and wildlife corridors - a centerpiece being a wild butterfly pollinator meadow. We are presenting special guest speakers and retreats that demonstrate a variety of ‘green living’ sustainability options. And for fun, we are hosting hands-on workshops that allow our participants to turn our farm’s local resources into hand-built products, from food to art to body care, from building materials to home gardens to renewable energy - skills you can take with you where ever you live.
