Waipa Foundation

Located in the lush and picturesque Waipā Valley, the Waipā Foundation manages over 1,600 acres of the historic Waipā ahupua’a, offering a vibrant hub for community and cultural engagement. For over 20 years, this non-profit organization has dedicated itself to fostering a deep connection with the 'āina (land) through sustainable agriculture, educational programs, and cultural preservation. The foundation conducts a variety of activities including community workdays, educational tours, and cultural events that highlight traditional Hawaiian practices and promote environmental stewardship. By participating in these activities, visitors and volunteers can gain a profound appreciation of native Hawaiian culture and the importance of ecological conservation in preserving Kauai's natural beauty.
