Founded in 2021, Kumuola, a 501(c)(3) organization registered in Hawaii, is dedicated to empowering Pacific Islanders by fostering self-sufficiency, financial literacy, and stable housing.

Cultivating Futures: A Pilot Project for Sustainable Agricultural Practices in the Pacific
Agricultural farming, especially of indigenous plants, play a pivotal role in the economic and cultural life of Pacific communities. This pilot project focuses on harnessing optimal and sustainable cultivation methods to ensure both the prosperity and longevity of traditional agricultural practices. Key aspects of successful farming include choosing locales with fertile soil and adequate shade, adopting responsible cultivation techniques, and implementing practices that prioritize environmental conservation. By adhering to these best practices, the project aims to assure a stable, safe, and sustainable supply of agricultural produce while simultaneously safeguarding the environment and preserving vital farming traditions for future generations.

About the
Kumuola Pilot Program
The aim of the pilot program is to explore the feasibility of cultivating plants, indigenous to the warm Pacific and in high demand in the US. Encompassing a team of academic research advisors with expertise in pharmacology, horticulture, and agriculture from esteemed institutions, the program endeavors to fuse traditional and modern agricultural knowledge to foster successful growth in the region.
The initiative is an agricultural endeavor crafted to carve a pathway towards employment and revenue through farm ownership. This program aims to furnish employment opportunities, financial resources, and expertise in premier farming methodologies. Participants will engage in cultivating their land, focusing on the growth of distinctive crops indigenous to the warm Pacific region. The income derived from these harvests will lay a foundational platform for securing loans, enabling them to build homes on their ancestral lands.
