Get an annual membership today; help support Hui o Laka – Kōkeʻe Musem for as little as $20/year. Just as in a family, a forest has many parts, little ones, big ones, strong ones, old ones who’ve seen many a storm. Every tree, every person plays a part, or if you’re a young person 12 or under, you can be the Maile vine that adorns trees like a lei, reaching fragrantly for the sky. No matter where in the world you are from, you can be a part of the forest ʻohana (family) that serves to maintain parks we all cherish.
