Ho’ola Farms was established to create a natural agriculture educational training center for veterans, caretakers and their families while providing an atmosphere that is safe and fun for all the community and children (of all ages) to be apart. This unique property is easy to access, located directly off the main highway only 5 miles outside of Hilo Town.
Previously farmed conventionally with chemicals aids and fertilizers (unsafe for children). Ho’ola Farms is converting this land into an alternative farming experience. Over the next few years Ho’ola Farms will be establishing a meandering ¾ mile walking path through a permaculture based food forest overlooking Hilo bay, Mauna Kea and the vast ocean horizon.
Nestled amongst the forest walk will be individual member managed plots of various sizes, children play areas, reflection ponds, lunch and rest areas. Unlike most farms, children, families and the community can safely and easily come and be apart and enjoy the abundance of naturally grown, chemical free food that will be produced. Come join us!
