Our Commitment

Our Maui scarves begin on the mountain. Haleakalā Moonrise is the volcano itself; Makena Bloom is the coast in its shadow.

10% of every Maui scarf funds native forest restoration on Haleakalā.

Before Leeloo + Zohan, our founder volunteered at the Auwahi Forest Restoration Project on the slopes of Haleakalā—replanting native Hawaiian trees that grow nowhere else on earth. It was one of the great experiences of a life spent looking closely at plants.

Only three percent of Hawaiʻi's native dryland forest remains—one of the rarest ecosystems on the planet. Our work begins in the archive, among flowers pressed and painted a century ago. Helping restore the living forest is how we keep the record and the real thing in the same hands.

So ten percent of every Maui scarf—Haleakalā Moonrise and Makena Bloom—goes to Auwahi's restoration work on the mountain they depict. Made to order, in editions of 100: nothing overproduced, nothing wasted. We report what we give, openly, each year.
