We were honored to welcome Senator Mazie Hirono, Senator John Boozman, Kamehameha Schools, and the Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau to Pacific Gateway Center Farms.

Their visit was a meaningful opportunity to share how PGC Farms supports immigrant and underserved farmers through agricultural training, land access, and pathways toward economic self-sufficiency. Mahalo to our partners and community leaders for taking the time to meet our farmers, see their work, and learn more about the role local agriculture plays in strengthening Hawaiʻi’s communities.

🌺 Today is World Refugee Day — a day to honor the courage, resilience, and strength of refugees around the world.
At Pacific Gateway Center, we are proud to stand alongside Hawaiʻi's refugee community every day — providing immigration legal services, social support, language access, and pathways to economic opportunity.
For over 50 years, refugees have enriched the fabric of our islands — their stories, their cultures, and their contributions make Hawaiʻi a more vibrant, compassionate place for all of us.
To every refugee who has made Hawaiʻi home — we see you. We stand with you. And we are honored to walk this journey with you. 🌊💙

Why here and why now?

Hawaiʻi’s food system is increasingly vulnerable to global supply chain shocks, climate pressures, and rising costs, all of which disproportionately impacts marginalized families and communities.

PGC Farms Haleʻiwa supports:

🌾Sustainable livelihoods for immigrant and refugee farmers
🌾 Increased production of locally grown food

Pacific Gateway Center is a Hawaiʻi-based nonprofit advancing economic opportunity for immigrant and refugee communities.

Through workforce development, small business support, and community resilience initiatives, PGC works to remove systemic barriers that limit long-term stability.

Growing Roots builds on that foundation by positioning agriculture as a pathway to economic mobility, food security, cultural knowledge preservation and community-based resilience.

PGC Farms Haleʻiwa represents the next chapter of that work on Oʻahu’s North Shore.

Immigrant and refugee farmers bring deep agricultural knowledge of soil, seasons, crops, and sustainable practices shaped across generations.

At PGC Farms Haleʻiwa, that knowledge doesn't disappear. It grows. Learn more about how to support our farmers at www.pacificgatewaycenter.org/pgcfarms
