The Merwin Conservancy

The Merwin Conservancy is a small and thriving arts and ecology organization on the island of Maui. It conserves both an extraordinary place—a lush and rare, 19-acre palm forest that two-time Pulitzer prize winning poet W.S. Merwin planted and tended on land designated as agricultural wasteland  — and it conserves the sense of wonder that brought forth both Merwin’s poetry, and his garden.
