Our central campus is transforming into a model of sustainability through low-maintenance edible landscaping. Featuring various themes such as resource management, permaculture design, and water catchment irrigation, students engage in hands-on learning while contributing to the environment. With initiatives like the edible green roof on the Recreation Center, the Kaimanahila Roof Garden, and maintained edible plants around the Andrews Amphitheatre, we're creating a sense of ownership and setting a new standard for campus greening. Join us in fostering sustainability!
