The Paepae o He’eia summer internship offers local youth the opportunity to learn about and participate in activities such as traditional and modern aquaculture at the fishpond, loʻi (wetland) kalo cultivation, native plant identification and propagation, and stream restoration. Activities and experiences will occur mainly in Heʻeia and Koʻolaupoko but longer huakaʻi are definitely possible! Paepae o He’eia hopes to inspire young adults in high school and college to be champions for the aina and knowledgeable stewards of the treasured resources of our island home.
Applications must be postmarked no later than Friday May 16th to be considered. Applicants must be 16 years or older to apply but preference will be given to those between 16 and 24 years old.
