Stewardship story

Five miles of fence line went up across two field seasons, closing the last open corridor into the project's upper units. Recovery is measured, not assumed: paired plots inside and outside the fence are surveyed each quarter, and the seedling-survival numbers reported here come from those plots. The crew is local, the materials came through the harbor at Hilo, and the fence line follows the moku boundary ridge for most of its length.
