A Great Day Learning Laau Lapaau (Traditional Hawaiian Medicine) with Noeau

By all accounts, the Laau Lapaau class on Saturday, September 25th with Pamela Noeau Day was fabulous! About 20 people came to Star Seed Ranch to learn the basics of traditional Hawaiian medicine. The class took a walk with Noeau and she pointed out common plants that have medicinal uses. The class was hands on, everyone got to make a laau preparation. I was the lucky recipient of a jar of medicine from my friend Susan Cox! Special thanks to Pamela Noeau Day and to Star Seed Ranch for making the magic happen.

Cracking kukui and then grinding and roasting.
