✨ 🙏🏽 We want to extend a heartfelt mahalo to Rehrig Pacific Company for their incredible support of the Maui community during their program. One of the many ways they gave back was through a generous donation to the Maui Food Bank.

When news of the August 2023 fires on Maui broke, Rehrig Pacific Company didn't consider moving their program from Kaanapali. Instead, they recognized the importance of staying on Maui to support local businesses and find additional opportunities to give back to the community. 🫶🏽

❤️ Their commitment and generosity have made a significant impact, and we are deeply grateful.

Lei Day was first celebrated in 1928. It was proposed by Don Blanding, a poet and writer, who suggested that a day should be dedicated to honoring the Hawaiian custom of making and wearing lei. 💐✨

The giving and receiving of lei holds deep cultural significance in Hawaiian tradition. Lei are symbols of love, friendship, respect, and aloha.

🐢 In Hawai'i, turtle nesting season typically occurs from mid-April to September. During this time, female green sea turtles, known as honu in Hawaiian, come ashore to lay their eggs on sandy beaches.

🤿 Is swimming with sea turtles on your bucket list? Let us know in the comments.

😍 For prime turtle watching, O‘ahu's North Shore and Maui’s Ho’okipa Beach Park are unparalleled! Witnessing these majestic creatures in their natural habitat and even swimming alongside them is a cherished experience for visitors.

💙 It's essential to observe proper sea turtle etiquette when encountering this gentle, endangered species. Respecting their space ensures both their safety and our enjoyment of these remarkable moments.
