Aloha! With the passing of summer solstice, the splendor of the growing season is upon us. Flowers, fruits, roots, leaves and nuts are bursting. And our local food economy is also teeming with life. In the past four months we have seen at least five new farmers' markets or CSA's sprout forth, serving fresh, local food to Hawai'i Islanders. That means we are buying less imported food and supporting more local growers, and producers. New Farmers' Market in South KonaJune 2nd marked the launch of a new Saturday Farmer's Market in Honaunau. Open 9:30-2pm, the new market is on the lovely grass lawn in front of SKEA - right on Mamalahoa HWY. Local fresh produce, fresh-roast Kona coffee, baked goods, jamsand jellies, potted plants, wooodworking and arts, crafts and music make this afun local foods venue. More vendors welcome.
Easy parking and friendly folks. Co-sponsored by SKEA, One Island, and the Same Canoe Community Food Project,with support from the USDA Farmer's Market Promotion Program. Vendors can email Christine at New CSA: Kalapana OrganicsAnnouncing a new CSA in Puna.
