In this special edition of Spotlight Now, students from Kamehameha Schools Maui roll up their sleeves – literally – taking action to help restore Hawaiʻi’s lands and cultural practices.

The first half of the show highlights work to replant native species in Kuʻia, demonstrating how revitalizing the land strengthens both the environment and the connection to place.

In the second half of the episode, the haumāna explore the rich history of Keālia, where they engage with cultural practitioners to understand the significance of traditional salt-making and their role in perpetuating Hawaiian values and knowledge.
