Hoʻoulu ʻŌpio Castle Agriculture Program Imu

October 26, 2021

Support Hoʻoulu ʻŌpio, the Castle Agriculture program! Tickets are now available to cook your turkey in their ANNUAL turkey imu.

Thanksgiving Turkey Imu tickets are now available for sale at the schoolʻs front office.  Mahalo nui loa to Kea and the office staff for the yearly support of this community event.  Did you know that Castle started doing this event sometime in the 1950ʻs and later built the infrastructure to make it a permanent part of our Ag Program?  Itʻs a lot of hard work but how could we possibly not continue this tradition?

For those who are not familiar with this FFA fundraiser, one ticket ($20) allows you one turkey up to 25 lbs to be placed in our imu pit.  More detailed instructions given with the tickets.  Drop off is on Wednesday November 24 and pick up is the next day.
