New Trees Take Root in Lahaina Two Years Wildfires

On the two-year anniversary of the Lahaina wildfires, the Arbor Day Foundation launched its effort to help replant lost tree canopy.

The Foundation distributed more than 580 trees alongside its local planting partner The Outdoor Circle, in collaboration with Treecovery Hawaii and The Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows.

During the event, trees were distributed to community members and families affected by the wildfire.

As part of the effort to increase the availability of fresh, healthy food, 94% of the trees distributed were fruit or food producing trees.
