In celebration of Kamehameha Day, join us for an informative lecture on the
evolutionary forces that shaped Hawaii’s unique native plant communities.
Learn how the arrival of humans and their animal companions changed the
botanical landscape and how the early Hawaiians used the plants to meet
their food, fiber, shelter, tool, religious, and medicinal needs. This
lecture will highlight the important work of the National Tropical
Botanical Garden and the Lyon Arboretum of the University of Hawaii in
conserving the island’s unique plant life and ethnobotanical heritage.

DATE: Saturday, June 8
TIME: 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m.
LOCATION: Conservatory Classroom
FREE: Pre-registration required
