Today we talk with in-studio guest Kawika Winter, Director of Kaua'i's Limahuli Garden and Preserve about preserving Kaua'i's unique eco-system through ethnobotony. We'll also discuss a recent declaration made by a scientific roundtable on the subject about how to preserve culture and environment through use of this discipline. Kawika Winter, Director, Limahuli Garden and Preserve
Kawika Winter joined the NTBG in 2005 as the Director of Limahuli Garden and Preserve. Born and raised in the ahupua‘a of Wai‘alae, Kona, O‘ahu, Kawika grew up in the islands with the mountains and the ocean as his playground. He went to the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa (UHM) where he received a B.A. and an M.S. in botany. He is currently working on the completion of his Ph.D. from UHM which focuses on the reciprocal influences that cultures and plants have on each other’s evolutionary paths.
