Hoʻiwaiwai Farms & Healing Center

Rooted in the spirit of Hoʻiwai, our Healing Center in Punaluʻu is a living extension of our framework. On this ʻāina, we farm and grow native plants alongside citrus trees, cultivating both nourishment and connection. This land is not just a farm, it is a waihona ola, a place of life and healing.

The Hoʻiwai Healing Center provides a safe, restorative space for individuals and families impacted by the justice system whether a person has experienced incarceration themselves or has supported a loved one through it.

Here, participants reconnect with ʻāina, with food, and with themselves. Through the act of tending the land, planting, harvesting, and learning traditional practices, they also tend to their own healing.

This work is about more than agriculture, it is about transformation.

Our center allows people to release trauma, find peace, and cultivate Hawaiian knowledge and connection.

It is a space to rebuild relationships with ʻāina, ʻohana, and community, and to remember that healing flows just like water, when we give and receive with aloha.
