Friday (UH Manoa CTAHR) have assembled a team of experts in their respective fields and selected outstanding field sites to visit during the workshops.

"And he gave it for his opinion, ... that whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together."
- Jonathan Swift
