Mahalo Kākou for the afternoon of service in Waimānalo. The landscape changes quickly with a nice rain. Guinea and Beard Grass on the rebound as well as Koa Haole. Many little native plants are also popping up with eagerness. We also outplanted 4 different native species today, totaling...

Happy Aloha Christmas Friday all! Big Mahalo to today's stellar stewards today. We took our time exploring and observing the rain effects on both the grounds and the plants. Then we went to work removing new invasive sprouts and collecting milo seeds! Mahalo Nui Team 🧡

Mahalo to these amazing folks for spending the morning out at Kaloko! It was a beautiful day. We continued to clear out buffel grass and koa haole from an area we will plan to outplant next year. We took a look at native yellow faced bees, plants and talked about the Hawai'i place names...

Merry Christmas Eve (Eve)! What a wonderful team coming out today, a combo of cherished regular volunteers and newcomers! What a great time to come too as a veritable verdant explosion has just occurred! Native plants have leaped out of their Summer naps with this weeklong rain saturation.

Another beautiful day of service in Hawaiʻi nei. We welcomed a reflection of Winter Soltice, Ke Ala Nui o Kanaloa, as we began our oli learning today. We picked up an abandoned dump of trash on the beach, then walked the parking area and headed out to Muliwaiʻōlena to grab trash that was...

Solo mission today and had an awesome time. As expected, a lot of trash accumulating in the mouth of the canal, and the sand plug is filling back in. Will need to get back out here soon to get the additional trash. Collected trash, primarily wrappers and containers, 11 diapers and a bunch...

Mahalo nui to our awesome team for the productive stewardship today. The sky cleared just enough for us to get some native plants into the ground, and pull non native plants out of the ground. Working on clearing the non native things out for our 2026 wet season planting.

"Long over due! The big dumps on North Road no longer happen, this is daily intentional littering. We tackled only a 1/4 mile stretch gathering 133 pounds plus some bulk items. Reported to 311 App for pick up."

Big Mahalo to today's stellar stewards! So excited to see the native plants springing to life from these heavy rains. We continued to remove invasive plants to create more space for the return of native coastal species. More beach rubbish today but hopefully just a small increase.

Mahalo to these awesome folks who dared the rains today to do some work. While I personally am not a big fantastic of working in rain for long periods of times, this group really pushed themselves. The rain is so needed, and it was light enough to still do meaningful work.

Big Mahalo to today's stellar stewards! Awesome progress made today digging out invasive species like buffelgrass. So great to find native plants already in here that will now have room to grow! We had a little bit of rain towards the end and we hope for a lot more in the weeks ahead. Mahalo Nui

Mahalo to our awesome team for the collective work today in Waimānalo. We focused our time on the increased micro plastics debris that are reaching higher onto the beach following this past high swell. I continued to gather data on the Pōhuehue seeds being impacted by the weevils.
