But there are areas of the refuge unseen by the public eye that are being restored to a Hawaiian dryland forest ecosystem, one of the most rare systems in the world. Volunteer to help plant species that were once found the area and to replace invasive Kiawe forests and reintroduce an almost extinct ecosystem. Working conditions are in hot and buggy areas of the Refuge with minimal shade. Come join us in this important and unique opportunity!
