Arts

Born on a small island, Sitali has been an artist from the start, able to make anything from anything. She sees beauty where others see waste, turning scraps into stories and trash into treasures.

From hat hakus to tapa angels, many are made with intricate folds of reused tapa scraps. Always made with what’s around us.

About Us

My LIfe

Born and raised in Haʻapai, Tonga, Sitali is a proud mother of two daughters who she raised with love and hard work, both graduated from BYU–Hawaiʻi. Now living in Kailua, Hawaiʻi, she spends her days cooking, baking, gardening, crafting, and caring for her family.

A true entrepreneur at heart, Grandma Sita has set up her craft tables all over the world, from her first market in Tonga, to San Francisco, and now Hawaiʻi. Everything she makes is rooted in Tongan & Polynesian Culture. All made with her love.

Sustainable Living

Sitali has always lived a plant-based, zero waste lifestyle by composting food scraps and reusing what what she can through every craft and recipe she makes

Handcrafted & Authentic

From food to crafts, everything we share is handmade and homegrown. Grandma Sita shows the skill, culture, and knowledge that’s been passed down in our family for generations.

Community-Driven
