Mālama Kauaʻi

In partnership with Todd Ecological, REDI led the design to compile a 21st-century sustainable agricultural development master plan and feasibility study for the Mālama Kaua'i Farm site. Mālama Kaua'i was intended to be the world’s first think-tank/do-tank within the context of Hawaiian ecosystems and its cultures. The study investigated integrative agriculture strategies and techniques that blended traditional farming practices into a modern-day context. The study included in the following:

Building productive soils

Vermiculture & Compost teas

Building mycelium networks for soil development and water conservation

Aquaculture with native Hawaiian fish

Educational opportunities
