Kohala Coast Farmers Markets

Exploring the farmers markets on the Big Island offers a delightful immersion into Hawaii's rich agricultural heritage and vibrant local culture. From the bustling stalls of Hilo to the quaint setups in Waimea, these markets showcase the island's diverse microclimates and the bounty they produce.

Waimea's markets, such as the Waimea Town Market at Parker School, provide a cooler upcountry experience, offering organic produce, artisan cheeses, and fresh-baked goods. Kona's markets, including the Keauhou Farmers Market, emphasize 100% locally grown products, featuring items like Kona coffee, macadamia nuts, and fresh vegetables. Meanwhile, the Makuʻu Farmers Market in Puna offers a lively atmosphere with over 150 vendors selling a mix of produce, crafts, and international foods, accompanied by live music. 

Visiting these markets not only provides access to fresh, local products but also supports the island's farmers and artisans, offering a genuine taste of the Big Island's community spirit and culinary diversity. We highly recommend a stop at some of these Big Island Farmer's Markets while you're visiting!
