In this episode, we sit down with David Fuertes, a farmer, educator and advocate for food sustainability, to explore his path of bringing aloha to agriculture. As a community leader and Executive Director of Kahua Paa Mua in North Kohala on Hawaii Island, David has spent the past 15 years cultivating a “backyard revolution” through aina-based education that blends traditional practices with Korean Natural Farming. He shares how the organization supports youth and families in learning to grow their own food, raise animals, and build agricultural businesses. David reflects on rebuilding Hawaii's Future Farmers of America chapters, his roots in Kaumakani, Kauai, and the importance of pilina (relationships), a value deepened through his friendship with Pono Shim. Through stories of teaching, military service, and reflecting on E Ohana Hou (the eternal unleashing of grace), David reminds us that food and love can be the foundation of a thriving lahui (people).Episode Highlights0:24 Introduction to David Fuertes1:02 Kahua Paa Mua and the "backyard revolution" of learning to grow food3:15 Rebuilding Future Farmers of America (FFA) Hawaii chapters5:25 Pandemic pivots on the farm and Aloha Connects Innovation (ACI)9:32 Roots in Kaumakani, Kauai, a sugar plantation town; learning about hard work12:41 College, getting drafted into Vietnam War, giving back and lifelong friendships15:51 Becoming an agriculture teacher18:21 The best Filipino ringtone ever20:18 Former students, then and now22:44 Dream food sustainability scenario - ahupuaa model26:05 How to make agriculture thrive in Hawaii: a farmer's perspective27:28 Reading plants and organisms to help them grow and thrive30:18 Taro: teaching young ones about life32:15 E OHANA HOU35:28 Pilina: Friendship with Pono Shim39:47 Aloha and the lahui43:05 The universal language of love: food44:33 The 3 QP (Quality, People, Partnership)47:21 Aloha + the concentric circle of influence and control48:33 JFK Hawaii visit49:23 Driving with aloha Learn more about Kahua Paa Mua at: https://www.kahuapaamua.org/about  Welcome to the Above the Sides podcast! Join us on our journey to uncover what it means to think, act, and live aloha. The inspiration for this podcast is the late Pono Shim, former President and CEO of the Oʻahu Economic Development Board. His stories capture the essence of what it means to live aloha. He made it known that aloha is a lifestyle. It is not a solution to problems, a marketing brand or to be used as an advantage over anyone else. Aloha is to be honored and practiced.The name of this podcast is in reverence of Hawaiʻi's Queen Liliʻuokalani, who wrote: "To gain the kingdom of heaven is to hear what is not said, to see what cannot be seen, and to know the unknowable – that is Aloha. All things in this world are two; in heaven there is but One.” Through these episodes, we seek to find that singular perspective, the one that is "above the sides" as we strive for universal peace.We welcome you to pause with us as we share the stories and voices of Hawai'i business leaders, educators and community members who have chosen to be lifelong students of aloha. Mahalo nui loa for listening.

In rural America, agriculture is a way of life and is learned through experiences from a young age, but those who grow up in urban settings don’t get that experience. There is one school in Milwaukee looking to change that. The River Trails School of Agricultural Science offers a unique experience to their students by having an ag focus in all grades starting in kindergarten all the way through 8th grade. Josh Gonzalez a second-grade teacher and agriculture committee chairman at the school shares how they incorporate agriculture into their curriculum. He says that being able to teach the students how to produce food and see what agriculture has to offer are the goals of the system that the school has set up.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In today's episode, I finally get to the other half of the story.  In my previous interviews with Case Edwards, who is an American Star Finalist this year, he has always given all the credit for his accomplishments to a classmate of his named Terrance Crayton.  When Case was a sophomore and Terrance was a junior, Terrance approached his FFA advisor and suggested that their chapter have a small engine team.  His advisor said, "sounds good, you put it together, teach it and run it" and Terrance did.  At Terrance's suggestion this is where Case got his first exposure to small engine repair, and it has now propelled him all the way to being an American Star Finalist in the category of placement. In and of itself, that is an amazing story, but of course there is more.  Terrance is also an American Star Finalist.  That is right, both he and Case, will share the stage as American Star Finalists this year at the National FFA Convention.  Terrance's category is agribusiness.  Since he was in the 9th grade Terrance has been repairing people's equipment and small engines for them.  At first he relied on his grandfather to drive him from place to place, but eventually he saved enough of his money to purchase his own pickup which he turned into a service truck for small engine repair.  Terrance's business grew and grew with the help of word of mouth advertising as well as Facebook Marketplace.  Today he is studying Ag Education at Auburn University, and this time next year he should be employed as an FFA Advisor.  Terrance gives credit to his grandfather's ability to teach mechanics to him for giving him the interest in small engines.  He gives credit to a typo on a class schedule that put him in an "Ag" class rather than the "Art" class that he wanted.  And he gives credit to his ag teacher who kept nudging him into FFA activities until he finally totally committed and his accomplishments in the FFA really took off.   SUPERVISED AGRICULTURAL EXPERIENCE: Agribusiness HIGH SCHOOL: Wetumpka High School, Wetumpka, Alabama MASCOT: Indians FFA ADVISOR: William Norris CONTACT INFORMATION FOR TERRANCE CRAYTON: Click on the picture below to be taken to the Wetumpka High School website: Terrance's FFA Advisors' Email Address: william.norris@elmoreco.com Wetumpka High School's Telephone Number: 334-567-1178 FFA LINKS: National FFA Organization Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE's) Support FFA  Donate to FFA - One way that FFA students are able to start small businesses is through an FFA grant of $1,000.  In 2014, 141 FFA students received these grants.  With your donations, more students can get this head start - pay it forward. REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and ensure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers, and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: "Because American farmers are able to provide for so many of us, they give more and more of us the freedom to pursue goals and livelihoods beyond growing the food we need to survive."
