Our Caretaker -- The New Generation of Organic Farmers
Who will grow our food in the future? Industrial farms, or family farms?
Our Caretaker Team is a group of new generation of organic farmers taking the lead in producing high quality food for the future while caring for our environment. Nut Hawai'i started a program called 'Nut Caretaking' to nurture a new generation of organic farmers.
Heart
Our Caretakers are the heart of the organic revolution that we are taking part here in Hawaii.
There is a quiet revolution going on in response to concerns over how corporate agriculture affects the environment, particularly in Aloha State here. The organic marketplace has grown 20% per year, bringing new opportunity for farmers to bring a fresh face to agriculture. We are facilitating the growth by actively involving in educating our Caretakers and other young farmers we know. This movement of today is changing the way people think about their food.

Hope
Our Caretakers are breathing new life into the rural landscape.
Organic farming is a craft, and the return of youth and think-organic way to farming brings hope to the rural landscape that has been decimated by industrial chemical agriculture. Our Caretakers take the knowledge and traditions of the past and the best natural technologies of the future, making our Farm of today the hope of tomorrow.

Connection
Our Caretakers are reconnecting people with food and farming.
Once again the face of the farmer is on the food. Citizen eaters want to know the story of who grew their food and how it is produced. That connection brings food and farming alive again.

Mission
More young people are turning to organic farming for their livelihood.
Youth is an attitude, and young people of all ages are turning to organic farming as their field of dreams. Farming is a noble task, filled with historical legacy and its own deep culture. To nurture and tend the land is a service of the highest calling. All our Caretakers carry this mission with them at all time.

Legacy
Our Caretaker Team is multigenerational, the heart of family farming.
Transitioning to organic can be a new lifeline for family farms and can provide a sustainable living that can then allow the farm to pass from one generation to the next. The diversity of organic farms means many hands play a part. The growth of organics means farming is once again an option for young people or young-at-heart as a career.
