The ʻĀINA in Schools program, one of three initiatives housed in the non-profit Kōkua Hawaiʻi Foundation, is a Farm to School program that connects children to their local land, waters, and food to grow a healthier Hawaiʻi. The program includes a K-6 curriculum with garden, nutrition, and composting education components. Led by volunteer docents from the parent and school community, ʻĀINA lessons occur on a monthly basis for a total of 8, hands-on lessons with fresh, and healthy taste tests accompanying most lessons.
