Makaha Farmer Market


On the Saturday we were on the island, Makaha Resorts and Hotel held their first summer Farmer Market on their parking lot and it was fun. There were lot of local fruits, cooked meal, fresh sea fish, cakes, cookies and flower. The people were very nice and friendly. A farming co-op gave out a bunch of bento lunch boxes and I got some for us. A flower shop gave away their flowers to us before they leave and we ended up gave most of them away to another lady because we have no room in our car.


Orchids, just slightly out of focus

This is one of the farm co-op where they teach homeless people how to cook and sell stuff. We got a couple free bento lunch box from these nice people
