This is such an amazing gem hidden in the lush tropical Hamakua countryside. The array of local farmed food and crafts is top notch! Lots of hot food to eat while you're there also. This is as local as you can get for Hawaii.
Today at the Hakalau Farmers' Market I purchased the freshest, ripest, juiciest, and tastiest mangosteens I've had since I lived in rural SE Asia 25 years ago. For $5 per pound!!! Also two dozen free range eggs (washed or unwashed). And a homemade sourdough chocolate croissant (which I ate before I could take a picture). But only four stars because a few vendors have attitude problems. Perhaps they think themselves to good to sell to non-kamaʻāina.
This little market is one not to miss if you want a taste of the Hāmakua life. Bring cash!! thereʻs no internet there to process payments, (but there is an ebt table where folks can get coins to spend from the card balance - make those gov $$ go hyper local!). Family friendly, all vendors sell local produce and products, no costco flippers allowed! Music, craft activites, art, games and local foods, including lots of amazing gf vegan options.
