After years of research studies and historical reports on kalo (taro), Voyaging Foods founder, Brynn Foster unearthed the history of kalo flour and found that Hawai‘i’s agricultural history included a number of companies that were involved in its production. Kalo is still a culturally treasured food with significant health benefits, yet Hawaii continues to import over 80% of its food. Through Voyaging Foods, Brynn hopes to see the islands become more self-sufficient by doubling the amount of canoe-plant growing lands in the state. The O‘ahu-based brand develops gluten-free baked goods and dry mixes from Hawaiian heritage canoe plants such as kalo,‘uala (sweet potato) and ‘ulu (breadfruit). These canoe plants promote a holistic view of health, parallel to the importance of healthy land. With this belief in mind, everything Voyaging Foods does is influenced by three pillars: mindful cooking, maintaining healthy lifestyles and sustaining local communities.
