AINA In Garden Party volunteers will work along side AINA In School families to harvest and prepare the school gardens for the spring garden lessons. Garden Party Projects may include: loosening and amending the garden bed soil, mulching the perimeters of up to 9 garden raised garden beds, weeding, creating garden artwork, watering and more. The general public and volunteer groups are invited. Please RSVP to volunteer@kokuahawaiifoundation.org. AINA In Schools is a program of the Kokua Hawaii Foundation and seeks to connect kids to their land, waters and food to grow a healthier Hawaii.

Ongoing Volunteer Opportunities:
AINA In Schools Nutrition and Garden Docents:
We are inviting volunteers to fill some openings in our AINA In Schools (Actively Integrating Nutrition and Agriculture In Schools) teams for the spring semester. We are training docents to teach nutrition lessons for grades 2 and 6, or garden lessons for Grades K, 1, or 5. Docents will teach these standards-based lessons one day a month and no experience necessary! We ask for a semester long (Jan-May) commitment. If you value the importance of teaching the next generation how to make healthy food choices and to grow their own food, you will find being a member of an AINA In schools docent team very rewarding and fun.
Interested volunteers must be able to attend a training in January for the component they are interested in (Gardens or Nutrition, or both). For more information about the training dates and locations contact: volunteer@kokuahawaiifoundation.org. AINA In Schools is a program of the Kokua Hawaii Foundation and seeks to connect kids to their land, waters and food to grow a healthier Hawaii.
