Hawaiʻi state flag derives from King Kamehameha I
HONOLULU (KHON2) – In the ahupuaʻa of Honouliuli, which lies in the moku of ʻEwa here on Oʻahu, stands a roadway which brings our attention to our flag. We are speaking of Puwalu St. The story behind statue of King Kamehameha I In Hawaiian, the word puwalu can mean 'all together or in unison,' but it also means 'flag, as on a pole.' The first flag to Hawaiʻi was around 1794 when Chief Kamehameha voluntarily ceded to Great Britain. He was gifted the red ensign, an all-red flag with the Union Jack in the canton used by the British Merchant Navy. From then, for over two decades, it was the Union Jack of Great Britain that was flown as the national flag of Hawaiʻ 1816, the King Kamehameha I then adopted a flag with nine horizontal stripes alternating from red, white and blue, and the Union Jack in the canton. The flag of the Hawaiian Kingdom adopted in 1816 by King Kamehameha I was similar to the Hawaiʻi State flag today. It was the Paulet Affair, which led to Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea recognized here at Thomas Square, which led King Kamehameha III to redesign it. Being convinced that he needed to rebuild his defenses, King Kamehameha III altered the Hawaiian flag in 1845.

This was the pattern that became the flag for Hawaiʻi as a US Territory and then became the State flag after 1960. Rumors share of a popular modern flag reflecting nine stripes alternating from green, red, and yellow as the original Hawaiian flag. Those rumors are false as there is no historical evidence found of to prove that claim. Did you know? Now you do! Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Learn about the magic of vermicast and nurturing your garden
HONOLULU (KHON2) — Jessica Higashi from the Oahu Master Gardener Program School and Mindy Jaffe, Operations Manager at the Magoon Wormery, joined Brittni Friedlander on Wake Up 2Day to share the sustainable and helpful details of vermicast for gardening. Traffic closures planned for King Kamehameha Day Parade 'Freshly harvested food from your own garden is more nutritious and tastier than fruit prematurely harvested and imported. Gardeners gain a sense of satisfaction from being self-sufficient and sharing produce with neighbors builds a great sense of community. If Hawaii residents come upon hard times economically or due to natural disaster, people be prepared to take care of themselves. You'll know what goes into your food, like organic fertilizers, pesticides, etc. if you grow it yourself!'Mindy shared what she specifically does to be sustainable through worms or 'worming', 'Vermicast is the end-product of worms digesting organic material. Instead of throwing away food items such as banana peels or pineapple rinds, you can feed them to the worms and compost. You can learn to make it on your own at the Second Saturday at the Garden event on June 14 at the Learn to Worm workshop given by Mindy Jaffe. Register on Eventbrite.' To speak with a master gardener, visit 'Master Gardeners' in-person at the Kapiolani Community College Farmers Market Plant Doctor table on the last Saturday of every month (first tent near the entrance), or walk-in to Urban Garden Center classroom on Wednesdays 9 – noon.
