Dear Friend of Maui:
The nine Rotary Clubs of Maui in conjunction with Ohana Gardens/Food Security Hawai`i and Uncle George Kahumoku, Jr. are ready to launch the “La`au Ha`awi Maui” project – “Gifting Trees for Maui”.
Food Security Hawai’i believes that the solution to island-wide food security and global climate change are one in the same - creating carbon rich fertile soils for local food production. Weknowthatourislandcangrowfoodyear-roundandourgoalistoplant500trees during this initiative to support these efforts.
We need your help! Here’s what you can do:
Do you have trees to donate? We will accept fruit bearing saplings that are at least 12” high and can be replanted into pots for transport. We will arrange to pick up the trees from your location and store them until ready to plant.
Would you like to have 2-5 fruit-bearing trees planted on your property or your place of business? We can make arrangements to bring the trees, the materials and the volunteers to install, mulch and fence the trees. Your commitment will be to maintain and care for the trees after planting. Ohana Gardens can assist with details of proper care and maintenance. Would you like to help plant trees starting on November 28th? “Many hands make light work” – we can use your help with planting!
Would you like to contribute to support this project? Any donation of funds will be accepted to support the costs of this project. All donations are tax-deductible and you will receive a mahalo letter for your support.
Would you like to “gift” a tree or number of trees for this project? Make this a Christmas gift in your name – donate $50 per tree and we will send a holiday gift letter to your recipient(s). You are also welcome to gift trees in memory of a loved one. What a wonderful gift this will be for your beneficiary and for our island!
