Nearly 250 people participated in Honolulu Community College's Hoʻolauleʻa 2023, which was held April 17–20. The theme for this year's celebration was Kanu ʻia Ka Huli, Ulu Ka ʻāina (planting seeds and cultivating the environment). Ka Māla o Niuhelewai (the garden of Niuhelewai) started with the planting of more than 20 varieties of Hawaiian kalo (taro) in March 2011 with the support of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs and Honolulu CC . It is an on-campus venue of learning for students, staff and community groups to increase exposure and understanding of traditional Hawaiian ʻike (knowledge) such as subsistence farming in an urban community and sustainable stewardship.
