Māla & Mahina is a kilo log for you to track what is happening in your garden (māla).
This book includes blended lunar calendars that incorporate both the Gregorian Sun Calendar that most of us use today, and the Hawaiian Lunar Calendar that our Hawaiian ancestors used.
You will find 30 day views, 10 day week layouts, and all new trackers at the end of each month to help you keep track of anything and everything that is important to you and your māla.
In the back of the book, there are numerous recipe card style pages that are meant to be used to write down any lā'au lapa'au or other recipes of importance.
There are also plant care cards to fill out so you know what works best for specific plants in specific stages of your garden.
Hawaiians used to live by the moon to tell us when to plant and harvest. This book is a tool of remembrance. Rather than applying the same lunar practices to everything, this book allows us to kilo both the moon and our garden to see what conditions work best with what we are planting and harvesting. Walk the paths our kūpuna once walked by living in pilina (relationship) with mahina (moon).
