#OceanFriendlyMaui: Your Friends' and Neighbors' Properties

For our Earth Month activities, we encouraged people to share their ocean-friendly practices with us. Now, we’re asking Maui residents to share their friends and neighbors’ ocean-friendliness with us! For some inspiration, check out what West Maui hotels and resorts have done. You can do a bunch of those things on your own property, like redirecting a downspout to water a garden, or installing some permeable pavers to promote infiltration. That helps our groundwater health and could mean more water in streams, less in storm drains. If you’ve seen anyone doing that, show us! Has anyone you know installed some drip irrigation or a fancy timer system connected to weather reports? Put in a rain garden? We want to know about it!
Here’s how to participate: get out there are “bust” your friends and neighbors being ocean friendly with their properties by snapping a photo (*safely socially-distanced of course), send us the photo (*with their permission of course), and if you can, post it on your own social media as well using #OceanFriendlyMaui. Include your mailing address when you email us so we can send you a gift card (if you’re a Maui resident). We’ll share it on our pages and website to highlight the positive action people are taking.
