Liko Lehua was born, nestled on the slopes of Mauna Loa in Waiākea Uka above the little town of Hilo. Dawn's great-great grandmother would tell her stories of the ʻōhiʻa lehua trees and its beautiful red blossoms that surrounded her childhood home. Liko Lehua was named for the love of the ʻōhiʻa lehua groves and the continued growth it has inspired in the generations of their ohana (family). Her Aunt Diane Kānealiʻi established Liko Lehua Butter with her sister Arlene in 1996. What began as a fundraiser for local soccer teams quickly grew into a thriving family run business. As word got out about their delightful island delicacy, their company continued to grow. Today, people from around the world enjoy the tropical scents and flavors in each hand poured jar of Liko Lehua Butter – a reminder of Hawaiʻi.
