ʻŌhiʻa are an invaluable part of our ecosystems and culture in Hawaiʻi. These sacred trees are under threat from Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD), but we can all do our part to protect them. Learn how and join us at Limahuli Garden & Preserve for a day of ʻōhiʻa love, a native plant sale, educational booths, cultural demonstrations, local craft & food vendors, ʻōhiʻa themed presentations, and more! This is the culminating event of the weeklong ʻŌhiʻa Love Fest in partnership with Kauai Invasive Species Committee (KISC). Free Admission.
