Nonprofits and volunteers have spent decades restoring streams in Waipao, taro fields and wetlands, and the fishpond in Windward Oʻahu to manage water and grow food. Stewards of Heʻeia said the work connects the mountains to the sea and depends on community participation.

In this episode, Rick Barboza, Kapalikū Schirman, Kanekoa Kukea-Shultz and Hiʻilei Kawelo discuss ahupuaʻa and shared responsibility, from native plant restoration and 1.3 billion gallons held in loʻi to feeding 2,000 people from the fishpond and sustaining the next generation.
