About the Program: 

We are currently battling the arid and poor soil conditions of Kihei HI. There are also many local pests and plant diseases that cause devastation to our crops. We have recently begun composting this last month and are looking to monitor the nutrient quality of our soil and water. Thus our school would also like to use our garden as a learning agricultural lab to teach students how to monitor soil and water quality in addition to learning about bio-prevention of local pests/plant diseases.
