If you have a passion for native and Polynesian introduced plants, then you won’t want to miss the 6th Annual Grow Hawaiian Festival at the Amy Greenwell Ethnobotanical Garden in Captain Cook. This festival is 9 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 27.

Over the last six years, this festival has attracted practitioners of the Hawaiian arts, biologists, conservationists, and horticulturists – professionals who share a common passion for the native and Polynesian introduced plants of Hawaii.

The Annual Grow Hawaiian Festival has something for everyone at any age. There will be hands-on activities for the keiki and adults, cultural demonstrations, ask-the expert booths, displays, live entertainment, and much more!

The festival is presented by Hawaii Forest & Trail, and sponsored in part by Hawaii Electric Light Company.
