Hamakua Sanctuary

The Hāmākua Initiative exists to support people in restoring relationship with the Earth, their nervous systems, and one another through lived community and land-based practice. We offer a residency where daily life itself becomes the teacher—simple, participatory, and rooted in care.

Our vision is a world where people:

Live in reverence with the land rather than separation from it

Practice reciprocity through contribution and shared responsibility

Experience true belonging within small, intentional communities

Integrate wisdom through daily life, not abstract instruction

Carry grounded, regenerative values back into their homes and work
