Help us protect and restore the native Hawaiian forest that captures the rain and provides our water:

Lush green mountain landscape with dense vegetation in the foreground and misty mountains in the background under a partly cloudy sky.

The Pu‘u Kukui watershed is a precious native Hawaiian forest which works as a natural sponge to capture the water used by the entire West Maui community.  It is home to plant and animal species that exist nowhere else in Hawai‘i, or anywhere else.

Join us! We are looking for volunteers to help us. Depending on the time of year, it may be collecting and processing seeds, removing invasive plants, maintaining a lo’i kalo, or planting Koa trees.
