Kawainui Marsh

We spent our fourth week at Kawainui Marsh and it is such a beautiful place to work. On the first day our site manager Doc Burrows gave us an awesome lesson on the history of Ulupo Heiau and the Kailua Ahupua'a. We spent most of our time opening up a lo'i and using the mud to build up the stick bridge surrounding it. 

Great job Team Mixed Plate and a special thanks to Doc Burrows!

Kako'o 'Oiwi

Oahu E worked with Kako'o 'Oiwi during our third week. We spent most of our time clearing out California grass to help restore the lo'i. We used the chunks of mud and roots to build a wall on one side of the lo'i. 

History lesson.

Beware! FLYING MUD!

Digging out the invasive grass.

Not bad for a days work in a beautiful place.
