Aloha Tree Alliance is a Hawai'i based non-profit organization dedicated to mitigating climate change. By partnering with organizations and our community, we initiate and support environmental projects and internships that advance resilient forest ecosystems for Hawai‘i. One of the most beautiful hiking trails in east O'ahu, the Kuli'ou'ou Ridge Trail is in desperate need of restoration. Kuli'ou'ou valley is a beautiful watershed that once boasted of native trees, shrubs, plants, birds and snails. Today because of overuse and misuse, switchbacks have been deeply cut, killing trees, plants and causing erosion that eventually kills coral and damages Maunalua Bay. Come out to one of our work days and learn how to remove invasive species, plant native plants and become a steward of the land. The restoration of this amazing hiking trail is happening and you can be a part of it. Check out our volunteer opportunities below! This project was made possible by the support of the Kaulunani Urban and Community Forestry Program of the DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife, and State and Private Forestry, branch of the U.S. Forest Service, Region 5.
