MOHALA FARMS IS GROUNDED ON THE LIFE-GIVING QUALITIES OF THE LAND AND A VILLAGE-MODEL OF MUTUAL COOPERATION AND LOCAL SELF-SUFFICIENCY. SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE - AS AN ORGANIC AND SUSTAINABLE FARM, MOHALA FARM' WORK IS BASED ON A CONTINUAL REGENERATION OF THE SOIL AND CREATING A FARM ECO-SYSTEM THAT IS THRIVING WITH BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY. THIS IS BEING DONE THROUGH COVER CROPS, LARGE-SCALE COMPOSTING, CROP ROTATIONS, WORM BINS AND VERMICAST FOLIAR SPRAYS, NATURAL AND ORGANIC PEST REPELLANTS, BEEKEEPING, AND A CONTINUAL EXPLORATION FOR THE MOST ADAPTABLE, DISEASE-RESISTANT VARIETY OF FOOD CROPS TO GROW. SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE ALSO FOCUSES ON THE TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE ON THE SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL AND THE FINANCIAL. THE GOAL IS TO MEET ALL THREE OF THESE COMPONENTS. THIS INVOLVES THE FARM CONTRIBUTING TO A THRIVING LOCAL ECONOMY, INCREASING THE HEALTH AND VITALITY OF OUR LAND, AND BECOMING FINANCIALLY SELF-SUSTAINING WHILE PROVIDING OUR WORKERS WITH A FULFILLING LIVELIHOOD AND A LIVING WAGE. LIFELONG EDUCATION - WHETHER PLANTING A SEED, INSTALLING AN IRRIGATION SYSTEM OR BUILDING AN ADOBE OVEN, THERE ARE ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES ON A FARM TO LEARN NEW SKILLS AND DEVELOP DEEPER UNDERSTANDINGS OF OUR NATURAL ENVIRONMENT. AT MOHALA FARMS, WE ARE CREATING A PLACE DESIGNED TO WELCOME VISITORS OF ALL AGES INTERESTED IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT ORGANIC AND SUSTAINABLE FARMING PRACTICES AND OF DEVELOPING PRACTICAL RESOURCES TO HELP NEW AND PROSPECTIVE ORGANIC FARMERS SUCCEED IN THEIR ENDEAVORS. EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES AT THE FARM INCLUDE OUR FARM INTERNSHIP PROGRAM, WORKSHOPS AND RETREATS ON ORGANIC AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES, PARTICIPATION IN UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII ORGANIC FARMING RESEARCH PROJECTS, AND HANDS-ON LEARNING ACTIVITIES WITH SCHOOL GROUPS, CHURCHES AND OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS. CUTURAL AND CREATIVE ARTS - CULTURAL AND CREATIVE ARTS PLAY A CENTRAL ROLE IN THE LIFE OF MOHALA FARMS. ORGANIC FARMING CAN BE AS MUCH ART AS SCIENCE, AND FARMS THEMSELVES PROVIDE UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES FOR CULTURAL AND CREATIVE PRACTICES THAT CAN STRENGTHEN AND ENRICH THE LIFE OF A COMMUNITY. ON THE FARM, CULTURAL ARTS ARE PRACTICED THROUGH RE-LEARNING TRADITIONAL AGRICULTURE TECHNIQUES, THROUGH FOOD PREPARATION AND DIFFERENT STYLES OF COOKING, THROUGH THE USE OF NATURAL MATERIALS FOR FARM BUILDING PROJECTS, THROUGH THE GROWTH, PREPARATION AND USE OF MEDICINAL PLANTS AND THROUGH A GROWING NUMBER OF OTHER CULTURAL PRACTICES. ON THE CREATIVE SIDE, THE FARM PROVIDES VISUAL INSPIRATION, SPIRITUAL NOURISHMENT AND THE PHYSICAL SPACE FOR BOTH ACCOMPLISHED AND ASPIRING CREATIVE AND PERFORMING ARTISTS TO PRACTICE THEIR CRAFT. THERE IS A NATURAL, CREATIVE ENERGY THAT EMANATES FROM THE LAND AND HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK CREATIVELY WITH THIS NATURAL ENERGY CAN BRING FORTH WHOLE NEW WAYS OF LIVING AND BEING IN THE WORLD. 93286 93286 JUDY KERN PRESIDENT 1.00 0 KATHLEEN MADDUX TREASURER 1.00 0 AYA KIMURA SECRETARY 1.00 0 MARK HAMAMOTO EXECUTIVE DI 30.00 8400 false false false false false false false false false HI MARK HAMAMOTO PO BOX 204 WAIALUA HI 96791 8084788469 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 500 204604 8170 50 700 214024 77873 100402 61393 53525 52153 345346 78373 305006 69563 53575 52853 559370 195000 195000 195000 195000 364370 20290 14744 15500 31750 36567 118851 20290 14744 15500 31750 36567 118851 98663 319750 85063 85325 89420 678221 0.53720 0.49260 0.18000 0.15000 X PART III, LINE 12 OTHER INCOME 0 FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 8 GET COLLECTED 381 TOTAL 381 FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 16 FARM EXPERIENCE TAXES 150 EXPENSES OFFICE SUPPLIES 630 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 381 INSURANCE 4,690 AGRICULTURAL EXPENSE 3,388 AUTO EXPENSE 5,176 DUES & SUBSCRIPTIONS 1,172 EQUIPMENT RENTAL 1,236 FEES 1,030 FOOD 10,331 GET PAID 3,653 MEALS 1,229 REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE 3,098 SUPPLIES 23,530 NON-INVESTMENT DEPRECIATION 24,857 TOTAL 84,551 FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 20 OTHER DECREASES 0 FORM 990-EZ, PART II, LINE 24 ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE 0 12,965 PREPAID EXPENSES AND DEFERRED CHARGES 4,169 1,981 SOLAR EQUIPMENTS 25,195 25,195 LESS ACCUMULATED DEPRECIATION 10,958 15,997 EQUIPMENT 36,545 36,545 LESS ACCUMULATED DEPRECIATION 1,827 9,136 UNDEPOSITED FUNDS 0 0 TOTAL 53,124 51,553 FORM 990-EZ, PART II, LINE 26 ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED EXPENSES 18,276 19,916 DUE TO/FROM MARK 0 0 FORM 990-EZ, PART III THE MISSION OF MOHALA FARMS IS TO FOSTER HEALTHY LOCAL COMMUNITIES IN HAWAII THROUGH SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE, LIFELONG EDUCATION AND CULTURAL & CREATIVE ARTS.
