A few things to consider to make your day successful:
We are a working farm. Growing kalo can be arduous work and the mud is deep. Stay hydrated and expect the possibility of full sun exposure or rain. Weather can fluctuate.
Be prepared to encounter nature. The loʻi is located in a natural wetland, home to many critters such as frogs, fish, birds and a few of our farm animals.
NOTE: All participants must sign the liability waiver before participating in any event. A parent MUST complete the waiver for all participants under the age of 17.
What to bring:
Wear old clothes (we recommend gals wear a bathing suit under their clothes for easy cleanup)
Towel
Change of clothes
Water bottle
Hat
Plastic bag (for wet clothes & towel)
SIGNED WAIVER if online registration not completed
