​Koʻa Camp: Mālama ʻĀina 
During this camp ʻōpio will experience mālama ʻāina through hands-on experiences in ahupuaʻa-based stewardship of ʻāina (land), wai (water), and kai (sea), and expose them to different career pathways in mālama ʻāina within our community. Participants will journey together into the Wao Maʻukele (Wetland Forest), Wao Kanaka (lowland forest), Kula (cultivated plains), and Kahakai (coastline) regions within the ahupuaʻa of Koholālele and Paʻauilo in Hāmākua Hikina. They will engage in a variety of activities on ʻāina including: moʻolelo (story telling), hana noʻeau (art), huakaʻi hele (walking hikes), mālama ʻāina (land restoration work), mahi ʻai (food cultivation), and imu (food preparation).
