Participants were able to take home native and endemic plants/trees to add <br />to their home gardens. <br />3. Full Calabash Fund: Funded by The Kohala Center. Through this project we assisted <br />families with providing prepared meals, food boxes (produce, fish, beef, smoked meat <br />and smoked sausages). We were able to support restaurants, locally owned businesses, <br />farmers, fishermen, ranchers and hunters. To allow donations to families be larger, we <br />also harvested produce from our farm sites to be added to boxes being donated to <br />families. We donated a wide range of plants, trees, seeds, and cuttings to help other <br />farmers and families with their home gardens. <br />
