History

Waihe'e Limu Restoration, or WLR, began in 2004 by Alyson Napua Barrows who is also known in the community as Aunty Napua.  Aunty Napua, an Oahu native, would spend summers as a keiki in Waihe’e Maui with her grandmother Ruth who was a teacher at Waihe’e Elementary School learning about the rich history and fishing grounds Waihe’e once was long ago.

​Today WLR is an LLC and still being organized by Aunty Napua and her ohana.
