Following the exodus of a major sugarcane operation, multimedia artist Lehua Simon is leading a broad coalition of residents, business owners, educators and agricultural innovators to create and deploy a complex multi-media campaign aimed at engaging their community in imagining and advocating alternative agricultural uses for the land in transition.

This will both create a sustainable local economy, and simultaneously increase the amount of locally grown food available in the community; particularly, for the public school system.
