Mele Kalikimaka a me Hau’oli Makahiki Hou,

We hope that the events of the past year have blessed you and your family in the same way that we feel you, our supporters, have blessed Sust ‘āina ble Molokai since our humble beginnings just a few years ago.

Our mission has been to create Sustainable Solutions for Molokai by incorporating the past with technology and community while working towards, food security, energy independence,

and economic resilience.

Following this mission has allowed us tonuture and grow the Molokai School Garden Network and Community Permaculture Farm,which arenow part of the national pilot project FoodCorps. The project has enabled us to foster these programs with the assitance of two FoodCorps members, Lacey Phifer and Simon Mendes.

In just the past few months,Lacey and Simon have established a greater presence for our programsat Molokai Middle School and Maunaloa Elementary. They have installedgarden beds, createdvermiculture projects, taught classes on nutrition, andeven made kale smoothies!
