Summer is on its way out, but our māla still has two more abundant months left in the growing season! As we prepare to close out this cycle, we invite you to come volunteer and share in the work of aloha ʻāina—caring for the land that continues to feed and sustain us.

Over the next couple of months, we will focus on harvesting kalo lau and giving the plants one last round of fertilization before the season ends. We will also be maintaining our walkways to keep the garden spaces safe and welcoming. Alongside this, there will be plenty of fresh harvests to share, including greens, lettuces, green onions, and tomatoes.

Join us for a fun and engaging Storytelling session led by ARCC Support Staff, Jolie Jessie. With over 10 years of experience working with preschoolers (ages 2–5) and middle school students (ages 10–14), and as a parent of two keiki herself, Jolie brings warmth, knowledge, and creativity to every story she shares.

Together, we’ll read 3–5 age-appropriate books, followed by activities that connect to the stories. Parents and guardians are welcome to stay and join in the fun—or drop off their keiki and pick them up at the end of the session.

Though the weather is cooling, the kalo is still growing! Join us for our māla work days in October to harvest the last of the tomatoes, peppers, green onions, and carrots. We will also continue to weed and harvest lau from the māla throughout the month. Toward the end of the month, we will begin to remove kalo corms from the mala to dry them out in the greenhouse and preserve them over the winter time. Be sure to bring a reusable bag to bring home produce!
