Our Hawaiian Values
Hāli'imaile Community Garden's values are a set of consistent ethical beliefs that provide integrity in the way we live, garden, and work together.
Our value system determines our priorities, guides our interactions with others, establishes behaviors that are kapu, and is centered around our Hawaiian culture and tradition.
We have selected these values to provide a framework for how gardeners treat one another, facilitate our decisions, and create stability through changes.
As a large group of gardeners of varying ages and ethnicity from many different demographic backgrounds, these common core values are essential to the ongoing success of our garden community.
