SB2

Hawaii SB2 mandates the state to prioritize planting edible fruit trees in new or renovated landscaping projects.

Hawaii SB2 amends Chapter 27 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes to require the state to plant trees that bear edible fruit in new or renovated landscaping projects, including buildings, facilities, housing, and public highways. The bill allows any person to harvest fruit from these trees without needing a permit or license, while still permitting the state to enforce trespassing laws or other property owner rights.
