Executive Summary — Feeding Our Island
The whole case and the asks, distilled from the papers. This is the board version — start here.
The Thin Line of Ships — Threat Assessment: Hawaiʻi Island’s Food and Fuel Supply Under the Iran War
How food and fuel actually reach this island, what the war has verifiably repriced so far, why this shock differs from 2020, and the gauges we watch in public.
How We Fed Ourselves
This island fed hundreds of thousands with zero imports — the measured history, how dependence was built acre by acre, and what 1941 and 1949 proved.
What We Have Now
The honest inventory: what Hawaiʻi Island can produce, process, and move today — what is real, what is decayed, and what each move builds on.
The Plan: Five Moves That Keep Hawaiʻi Island Fed
The deliverable. Five moves — inputs, staples, protein, distribution, the network — each with first-90-day actions, costs, named owners, and metrics.
Public Opinion Strategy
How we reach the island: the message house, the trusted voices and group leaders, the Makahiki-anchored event calendar, the content engine, and the forward-looking line we hold to.
The Free Economy: How the Movement Pays for Itself
The engine is the movement’s own — membership, workshops, input sales, barter, food as currency, hoʻokupu — and the design assumes zero public money. The record that explains why, and the asks priced at zero.
The Interisland Repricing: What the 2025–26 Young Brothers Rate Increases Mean for Hawaiʻi Island Food
Interisland shipping repriced three times in twelve months — the documented rate chronology, the carrier’s finances in the public record, the agricultural exemption, and the widening differential that favors island-grown food.
The live gauges behind Paper 01 — fuel, freight, the watchlist — are on the data page. The actions the papers end with are gathered, by audience, on Plant with us.
