Food for Life Farm Visit & Breadfruit Tree Planting in Hawaii
Daniel Bravo, chef on the Greenpeace Arctic Sunrise, center, and Hannah Strange at Greenpeace US, right, visited Ku'ike Kamakea-Ohelo at the Kupa 'Aina Project. They participated in a traditional planting of a Breadfruit Tree during the visit. Part of the tradition was adding a whole fish and ground volcanic rock to pay homage to the gods in the planting process. The breadfruit tree has big green leaves up to 2 feet (61 cm) long. Polynesians on voyaging canoes brought this tree to Hawaii because of its fruit, which can be boiled or roasted. Its starchy pulp is rather tasteless but provides valued nutrition and an easy to grow food source. The ancient Hawaiians didn't eat much breadfruit (ulu) and used it mainly to feed hogs. But ulu poi (breadfruit mixed with taro) was more popular. Greenpeace toured the farm as part of the Food For Life campaign.
