Location: 1477 Kalaniana‘ole Ave, Keaukaha, Hilo, Hawai‘i Island (map)
This hands-on workshop will cover various propagation techniques for backyard and commercial ‘ulu growers. Methods presented will include root sucker transplanting, air-layering, root tip cutting, grafting, and tissue culturing. We will also discuss propagating "co-crops" for diversified agro-forest systems, which are more sustainable and economical than monoculture orchards. Interested participants will get to take home a transplant of their own!
Cost: There is no cost to attend this workshop but space is limited.
