The Imu Mea A’i Experience in Pāhoa immerses guests in traditional Hawaiian culture through a hands-on imu building workshop. This 4-hour program guides participants from a warm welcome and cultural orientation to building a traditional underground oven, known as an imu, while learning its history and significance.

The experience fosters a strong community connection through talk story sessions where visitors can share thoughts and ask questions.
