Waimea Middle School Oral History Projects
Lessons from the Earth: Multiple Perspectives from Waimea’s Farmers Created from one of two oral history projects conducted by Waimea Middle School students. Students prepared for and interviewed some of Waimea’s farmers, who share their stories of old Waimea and the struggles of the farming life. The creation of Kuhio Village and the first Waimea Saturday market are two of the many stories that were shared.
Includes a brief introduction followed by the interview transcripts and interviewee bios. This intergenerational project was a great experience for student interviewers and community interviewees. All proceeds will go to fund future oral history projects. |
