Our First Birthday Was a Blast!

Mahalo nui loa to all who came out to help us celebrate our 1st Birthday on October 25, 2012!  More than 1,500 people of all ages joined us for an afternoon full of activities, including home-grown entertainment, the popular petting zoo and pony rides, costume and booth decorating contests (just in time for Halloween), and prizes.  And of course, there was lots of shopping going on to support our local farmers and green businesses.

Georgette Stevens and her lovely daughter Keala entertained us, as they did one year ago.

Jorden Corpuz also delighted us with his singing and 'ukulele talent.

Zac was back with his composting worms!

We even had a free give-away of Ma'afala Ulu (breadfruit) trees!

The ponies were back to delight the children.

There were lots of kids in the house!

These dried tako, octopus, made nice displays.

The Malama Learning Center staff dressed up for the occasion. Can you guess what they represented?  (Hint: it had to do with the environment in distress.)

Uncle's Hawaiian Organics won the "best decorated booth" award.

Mahalo to Hawaiian Electric Company for donating shopping bags for our customers!
