My classmates in grade eight and I recently went on a field trip to the lo'i kalo (a wetland taro farm) at the Kohala Institute for the first time. We pulled the grown kalo out of the lo'i, and separated, de-leafed, and re-planted the kalo. Throughout the day we were able to learn and also have fun, a novel concept. Our class got to work in a nature-filled environment, and we were able to make connections with the land of 'Iole, each other, and our instructors. We all had a great time and had a fun experience working in the lo'i kalo at Kohala Institute.
