Remembering a CTAHR alumn dedicated to sustainability and water conservation around the globe.

The Landscape Industry Council of Hawaii (LICH) newsletter, edited by CTAHR Extension Agents Hannah Lutgen, Alberto Ricordi, and Russell Galanti, was recognized with “Third Place Outstanding Multi-part and Image-based Communications Award” at the 2025 American Society for Horticultural Science Conference.

The 2025 Hawaiʻi Conservation Conference was a proud moment for the College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resilience (CTAHR), with strong representation from alumni, students, Extension, and faculty.

We were thrilled to be part of the highly anticipated return of the Hawaiʻi State Farm Fair earlier this month. Team CTAHR had 13 interactive tables and displays with games, coloring books for keiki, and a petting zoo of locally grown fruits, vegetables, and flowers.
