‹ The Land & Sea

Origin

Hawaiian

Description

Not a cooking technique but a food production system. The fishpond represents the highest expression of Hawaiian resource management — the ahupuaʻa system (mountain-to-sea land division) ensured that freshwater runoff enriched the fishponds, which fed the coastal communities, which maintained the ponds. Circular, self-sustaining, elegant.
