Hilo farmland protected in perpetuity with help from nonprofits

O.K. Farms in Hilo, which had been owned by Ed Olson but operated by the Keolanui family, has been growing produce that feeds Hawai‘i Island and beyond for 20 years. Now, that mission to enhance local food security is assured with the Keolanui family purchasing more than 74 acres of the farm with help from the Hawai‘i Land Trust and Trust for Public Land.
