Malama Hawaii Planting Tour

The Malama Hawaii Planting Tour takes place on the coastlines of Waialua and Haleiwa on Oahu's North Shore, where North Shore Stables serves as an official location for the Malama Hawaii program run by the State of Hawaii and the Hawaii Tourism Authority. The property spans oceanfront land along the North Shore and is undergoing a full restoration of native Hawaiian shoreline plants, native trees, regenerative agriculture, and native Hawaiian cultural practices.

During the tour, participants plant native Hawaiian shoreline plants and learn how those plants rebuild sand dunes naturally, prevent erosion, and protect against sea level rise. No tools or power equipment are needed. Garden or working gloves are provided, and cold drinking water is available, though bringing a personal water bottle is recommended. Restrooms are on site. No transportation to the property is included, so arranging a ride separately is necessary.

This experience suits locals and visitors who want to contribute directly to restoring a native shoreline ecosystem. Minors must be accompanied by a legal guardian.
