The farm tour meanders through a regenerative food forest, designed by Director of Agroecology John Parziale, where he and his team explain its intricate and interconnected systems. Fittingly, the experience ends with a sunset pau hana, the beloved island tradition synonymous with happy hour with beer or wine* and island to table pupus on Common Groundʻs magnificent campus.
Common Ground's food forest reveals a symphony of relationships between Hawaiian favorites such as ulu, kava, and taro, Amazon rainforest specimens, annual vegetables, mushrooms, egg-laying chickens, and dairy cows, offering visitors a snapshot of what the farm of the future could look like.

Customer Reviews
Fantastic talk and tour about how regenerative farming can work. It was great to sample the foods grown on the farm and sample products from their startup incubator.
We were so enlightened by the regenerative agricultural techniques they showed us on this tour. The guides, along with the entire staff, is dedicated to preserving the environment, the soil and working in HARMONY with the land to provide sustainable farming techniques.
Common Ground provided an experience that connected us with planet earth again. We spoke about how to help the planet through sustainable agricultural work and then toured the farm to see it in action, eating native fruits along the way! After visiting a historic area of the farm we returned to an organic farm to table lunch that was amazing!! Spectacular tour with informed and dedicated staff, highly recommend
