Buy a locally-grown Christmas tree -AND- support KAHEA: The Hawaiian-Environmental Alliance!O'ahu's ONLY Christmas-tree farm, Helemano Farms in Wahiawa, has generously offered the local 'aina advocacy organization, KAHEA: The Hawaiian-Environmental Alliance, an opportunity to fundraise by selling pono, locally grown Christmas trees during this holiday season... a 6-ft tree for only $40!KAHEA is an islands-wide alliance of environmental advocates, Native Hawaiian cultural practitioners, scientists, activists and thousands of individuals. Together, the KAHEA alliance is committed to securing the strongest possible protections for Hawaii's most ecologically important, endangered, and culturally sacred resources.
 Why should you buy a locally grown tree from KAHEA? A few perfect reasons: - Did you know that each year 100,000 trees are shipped to Hawai'i in some 500 container loads!?! These imported trees can introduce invasive species to our islands.
- By buying local, there is no fossil fuel used for shipping. Since they are grown locally they will not introduce invasive pests. Plus, you will be supporting a sustainable local farm business.
- Your 'ohana gets to enjoy the tradition of picking out your own tree, choosing from 10,000 mature trees at the farm.
ONLY $40 for a BEAUTIFUL, LOCAL 6-ft.
