Hualalai Keohuloa

Born in Moloka'i, raised on the island of Hawai'i, Hualalai Keaweoluna Keohuloa has dedicated his musical passion from his mother, Lynda Bertelmann, to bring universal awareness to our communities. His uncles sailed upon Hokulea's maiden voyage to Tahiti. Building the voyaging canoe, Makali’i, his ‘ohana continues to preserve Hawaiian culture through the wa'a (canoe). From his land stewardship to building canoes for the community, to standing Pa'a against negative impacts to our ʻAina and people, Hualalai has come to share his gifts with the community at large. He is new to farming but is loving the learning process and the ability to share his learnings with students while growing food for his family.
