Lau Lau and Hula at Kalani Honua on Hawai'i Island
Chef Ellard experiences a luau at Kalani Honua in the Puna District of the Big Island. Kalani is an intentional community founded in 1975. Kalani's mission is "to provide a fun, safe, and educational retreat village which encourages ALOHA love for life in each person's own deepest way through participation in abundant nature, culture, and wellness experiences". In this episode the community, under the leadership of Auntie Dottie Keyser, helps make a local Hawaiian meal, including lau lau, poke, Hawaiian fern salad and other local delicacies. Part of the luau is dedicated to hula and is lead by Jonathan Lopez. Mahalo for watching.
