Restoring shorelines, watersheds and food systems is a "Kākou Thing"
​It Takes Community Empowerment, Partnerships and More!  

Hui o Ho`ohonua - a community networking non-profit has activated the community to restore the makai section of the Honouliuli Watershed at Kapapapuhi Point Park.  This effort, supported by funding from the US Fish and Wildlife Service, DLNR-Division of Aquatic Resources and a growing network of collaborators, has drawn over 10,000 community volunteers to clear 7 acres of invasive mangrove, replant native vegetation and re-ignite pride of place.  With funding from the USFWS National Coastal Wetland Conservation program, the community is set to restore an additional 21 acres of Pu`uloa shoreline and recover multiple Hawaiian fishponds.  We believe this holistic, sustainable approach is providing an innovative pathway to restoring the region to `āina momona - thriving land, thriving people.
