Continuing our 15th anniversary and Earth Day celebrations with another awesome field day! Mahalo to Mr. Justo and his students for their hard work all year in their native plant nursery and on days like this in the field. Together we planted almost 400 native trees and shrubs today in our vegetative fuel break in Waianae Kai Forest Reserve (many of the plants grown by them, too🙌). Mr. Justo has been bringing his students to malama aina with us for 15 years! These vegetative fuel breaks are especially important for breaking the grass-fire cycle, reducing wildfire fuel, reducing the intensity and spread of fires, and restoring native Hawaiian plants. Shout out to our amazing crew for all of their hard work, too! Contact us if you’d like to kokua.
