This is the only formal distribution planned, so be sure to reserve your spot!
Learn about this variety of Camellia sinensis that is unique to Hawaii, as you taste some tea made from “Mealani.” Look at some matured plants in the field. We suggest bringing containers and/or plastic bags to hold your potted Mealani plants on your drive home.
For your protection: REQUIRED – long pants and shoes (no sandals/slippers). Come prepared for both full sun (sunscreen and other protection) as well as showers and chilly weather. No pets and no smoking allowed.
Please call 887-6183 or email rth@hawaii.edu or kjoaquin@hawaii.edu to reserve your spot and to receive last minute updates.
