One of the most refreshing and visually interesting activities in Honolulu is a morning visit to the local farmers market. Offered several days per week in various locations around town, the Hawaii Farm Bureau Federation sponsored Farmers Market is a feast for all the senses. On Saturday Mornings in Honolulu just around the back side of Diamond Head at Kapiolani Community College the market is a fantastic way to start the weekend. Work up an appetite with a run along Diamond Head Road and take in the early morning surf action at Light House, a popular local surf spot at the base of Diamond Head. Then head on around to the Farmers Market. The Culinary Institute of the Pacific has some great chefs on hand cooking up a broad assortment of good eats for Breakfast or Lunch. From 'Plate Lunch Specials' to gourmet delicacies, there is something for every taste. .After you've sated your hunger pangs, shop for organic veggies and beautiful flowers to help you prepare for your 'cocktails and pupu' partry or to dress up your dinner table. This farmers market is also co-sponsored by both the Department of Agriculture and the Culinary Institute of the Pacific, so you are certain of discovering unique and unusual preparations of fresh, green and sustainable foods.
Beautiful Sun ripened fruits await you ....delicious gourmet foods.
Plate Lunch heaven, your gourmet choices are all extraordinary
Cooked to your liking, or prepped for you to take home and cook later,
it is literally a 'one stop' shop.
Fresh cut flowers or blooming orchids......exotic, colorful and this is every week!
Check out the Hawaii Farm Bureau Federation, a group founded in 1950 that includes over 22oo island farmers and supports sustainable farming and local produce growers throughout the Hawaiian Islands. Their website features each weeks schedule and vendor information as well as information on the other Famers Markets on Oahu and on the neighbor islands throughout the week. This is one weekly event not to be missed!
