Native Plants and Place-Based Education

April 25, 2015 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

- Free

April 25, 2015—Facilitated by Kamuela Naihe. Open to all K-12 teachers. Discover how we can deepen our relationships to place, using the ahupua‘a of Kealakekua and the gardens as the foundation. We will expand our understanding and appreciation of native plants through mo‘olelo, variety names, characteristics and uses. Kamuela will lead us on a walking tour of the Amy Greenwell Ethnobotanical Garden through different growing zones and share how to incorporate native plants into school gardens. We will harvest from the garden and prepare a lunch together.
