7 Acres Stabilized in Kula!
After significant organizing, planning, and collective fundraising efforts in our first months as an Alliance, we were able to complete our first two projects in November and December, stabilizing over 7 acres of burned land, preventing landslides and damaging runoff in key places before the winter rains. In order to do this, we generated over 3,000 cubic yards of wood chips, sourced from nearby invasive trees that are considered hazardous fire fuels. These chips were either used on-site or transported to nearby areas of the burn scar.
We have many more acres ahead, and our soil stabilization efforts will enthusiastically continue into 2024, doing what we can as funds allow.
Have a look below at some of the key moments in our recent work:
Looking Ahead
As 2023 comes to a close, we’re looking ahead to 2024 with hopes to continue stabilization and begin stategically installing deer fence on stabilized lands so planting can begin. Stay tuned!
