Punahoa Heritage Forest - 1,900 acres of native land on Hawaiʻi Island where lush native forests nestle amongst ancient lava flows and mist and rain collects in streams flowing to the ocean. The Punahoa Heritage Forest has been created and developed by the Pūʻā Foundation, with the Hawaii Conference Foundation of the United Church of Christ Board of Trustees. Pūʻā Foundation has direct stewardship over 1,300 acres of natively forested land with water features. Daniel K Inouye Highway divides the land. The ~1,000 acres to the west of the highway establishes the Punahoa Heritage Forest. As neighboring land stewards, the Hawai‘i Conference Foundation - United Church of Christ has ~900 acres adjacent to Pūʻā Foundation land already under protection with The Nature Conservancy. They have committed this to expanding the Punahoa Heritage Forest.
