"Cultures are not designed from the top down as much as they grow organically from the bottom up."

~David Orr

Welcome to
Lawa Pono Forest

We’re cultivating more than just a forest—we’re growing a community rooted in balance, reciprocity, and respect for the land. Here, change takes its time, nurtured with care as we follow the rhythms that guide us. Step into a place where living with intention creates a future that thrives.

Ways We Work

The forest teaches us to be adventurous, hopeful, and a bit rebellious. Guided by nature’s wisdom, our work—whether in the food forest or within the community—carves out paths toward resilience and care. Together, we’re shaping a future that’s rooted in connection and purpose.

"Without questioning our worldview and the narrative that has shaped our culture, are we not likely to repeat the same mistakes over and over again?"

~Daniel Wahl

Consider the stories that shape your world- are they true, or are they just comfortable?
