Hawaii Ulu Producer’s Cooperative

The Hawaiʻi ʻUlu Co-op is a farmer-owned business working to revitalize ‘ulu (breadfruit) and other delicious, nutritious Hawai‘i-grown staple crops such as kalo (taro), ‘uala (sweet potato) and palaʻai (pumpkin). The co-op is committed to the revival of ʻulu to strengthen Hawaiʻi’s food security and to the value of mālama ʻāina – care or protection of the earth – by using environmentally responsible production methods.
Formed in 2016 with nine small, diversified growers on Hawaiʻi Island, Hawaiʻi ʻUlu Co-op has grown to over 200 member-farms on Hawaiʻi Island, Maui, Oʻahu, and Kauaʻi that supply these crops. By empowering farmers as change-makers in Hawaiʻi’s food system, we can grow consistently and sustainably, and provide value added products of value to our local communities and beyond.
