Who are we?

Rainbow Bridge Hawaii is a sanctuary for healing, land stewardship, and regenerative education.

Nestled in the lush landscape of Hawai‘i Island, Rainbow Bridge Hawaii invites you to reconnect — with the Earth, with community, and with the deeper parts of yourself. Rainbow Bridge Hawaii is the doing-business-as (DBA) name of Manoloa Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Through this project, we offer hands-on learning, ecological restoration, spiritual and emotional healing, and community-rooted experiences that inspire awe, connection, and a sense of belonging.

Our Mission

Rainbow Bridge is a nonprofit organization cultivating human connection, ecological stewardship, and community resilience through land-based education in regenerative living, natural building, and collaborative community work.

How We Live the Mission

At Rainbow Bridge Hawai‘i, our offerings are designed to ground people in meaningful, land-based experiences. Whether you’re planting in our food forest, learning traditional Hawaiian practices, or exploring the symbolic world of dreams, our programs foster resilience, skill-building, and healing through direct engagement with the land and community.

We bring this mission to life through programs and experiences open to all:

Community Garden Day

Every Wednesday, we open our sanctuary to the public for a day of community connection and regenerative gardening. Learn, work, and eat together in the spirit of the gift.

Events & Workshops

From lucid dreaming retreats to Permaculture courses and natural building workshops, our events are invitations to deepen your connection to self and place.

Work Trade & Internships

Learn by doing, live in community. Join us for a season of skill-building in permaculture, natural building, and land stewardship.

Ways to Contribute

There are many ways to help bring this vision to life — from volunteering and teaching to donating native trees or simply joining us for a garden day.

From Plantation Scar to Living Sanctuary

Though Manoloa Inc. was founded in 2020, board member and original land steward Grigor has spent over 25 years regenerating this land — once choked by cane grass, now home to food forests, animal rescues, and a vibrant intergenerational community. Rainbow Bridge Hawai‘i was born from a dream: a call to return to connection, co-creation, and reverence for the Earth.

Want to contribute to our project?

Whether it be through volunteering, internships, work-trade, or donations, we love and appreciate all gifts made to the land, people, or animals of Rainbow Bridge Hawaii, and strive to give back in the spirit of the gift any way that we can.
