Plumeria flowers for lei class

Learn how to make an authentic Hawaiian plumeria neck lei (lei ʻāʻī) in the kui method! The amazing Stacy Atkinson will guide you through the entire process. As a bonus, you’ll also learn how to make a plumeria hairpiece.

All materials and supplies are included in your registration. You’ll take home what you make. No experience is necessary, and all ages are welcome. This class is held in an intimate, in-person setting on Atkinson Plumeria Farm in our open, shaded classroom. It is a rain-or-shine event.

Have more fun! Bring…

  • Grandma, mom, daughter, granddaughter
  • Spouse/partner
  • BFF, neighbors, coworkers, fellow plumeria growers

If you want to preserve your lei, bring an ice chest with an ice pack covered by at least 3-4 layers of newspaper/paper towel or a cloth towel.

After the class, you can walk around the farm among the 100s of plumerias and 1000s of blooms.

What to bring:

  • Water bottle (refills provided)
  • Hat
  • Close-toed shoes
  • Wear sunscreen
