Kalo (Taro)
About Kalo

Kalo

A highly nutritious complex carbohydrate staple food considered sacred by Hawaiians, kalo was arguably the foundation of Hawaiian society, which enabled a culture isolated in the middle of the Pacific Ocean to thrive. 

Here at Kapalai, where our programming takes place, kalo is still thriving today. We grow several kupuna (old Hawaiian) varieties but focus on the cultivation of Moi Kea.
