E Ho'omau! (To preserve; to learn from the past and perpetuate the good) is a curriculum development project funded under the Native Hawaiian Education Program of the U.S. Department of Education (http: //www.ed.gov/programs/nathawaiian/index.html). It begins with the creation of three high quality animated versions of traditional Hawaiian legends, designed to be engaging and culturally appropriate. These are complemented by standards-based written materials and teacher training activities to strengthen language arts and science achievement for Native Hawaiian 4th graders. E Ho'omau! addresses the need to improve the literacy skills of students of Hawaiian ancestry by integrating evidence-based educational approaches with a visually-rich learning system based on Hawaiian legends. The idea is to elevate student motivation and enhance self-confidence while providing meaningful learning opportunities.

A South Carolina farmer does it like his ancestors did -- he and his family farm exactly the way his predecessors did 200 years ago, with the exact same seed stock and with the exact same methods on the exact same land. Watermelon, kale, okra, hemp, a wide variety of crops -- so far, the whole venture has been a wild success. Nat has also dedicated his life to reviving ancient crops on the edge of extinction, from pumpkins, gourds and maize grown by American indigenous peoples to the specific African peanuts and melons that were a sustenance crop for enslaved peoples before the American Civil War.
