What’s the Hawai‘i Food Map?
It’s an everyday, anybody’s guide to what’s being grown here, where to get it and of course, how to prepare and store it.
We see it as a living project that will be constantly growing, an evolving archive, whose purpose is to share information, open the communication routes up between farmers and eaters, and to celebrate our love of food. Contact us if you know of a farm, 100% local farmers market, CSA, or have a food tip!
