#Repost @greatbigstory with @get_repost ・・・ Empowering fishing communities to continue traditional practices is at the core of what we believe will help sustain fisheries and a healthy and sustainable food source into the future. Check out how the fishing families of Hoʻokena are working to revitalize their traditional practices of ʻōpelu fishing and how collaborating with chefs like Mark Noguchi will help bring awareness to the sustainability and future of this critically important staple food source for Hawaiʻi. Mahalo to our Hoʻokena ʻohana, the talented team at @greatbigstory, and mana-couple @musubman and @umuhawaii for making this storytelling project come to life!

ʻŌpelu fishing continues to be way of life, and a staple food source for the families of Hoʻokena. This weekend we went behind the scenes with the fishing families, @greatbigstory, and @musubman to share the importance of ʻōpelu and how the Hoʻokena organization #KUPA is working to continue their traditional practice of hanai #opelu with their #OpeluProject. Mahalo piha to the many hands that made this weekend’s storytelling project a success! #BTS #Hookena #OpeluProject
