Mālama Kauaʻi 2025 Food Systems Summit Wrap-Up

Mahalo to everyone who joined us for the 2025 Food Systems Summit. Over the course of the three-day gathering, more than 180 community members participated in workdays, workshops, interactive events, and panel discussions with local leaders, farmers, and food advocates!

The summit created space for important conversations on food access, regenerative agriculture, farm-to-school programs, and the future of land and food sovereignty. These exchanges highlighted both the challenges and opportunities in building a resilient and equitable food system for Kaua‘i.

Recordings of the sessions are now available:
