Episode 622 - Tropical Farmer’s Market addthis
Tropical Farmer’s Market
When you’re on vacation, it’s always nice to learn about favorite foods from the area. In Hawaii, there are a lot of choices unique to the island’s culture. Come with us to the Big Island, where we meet farmers growing some special crops.

We visit the Wednesday farmer’s market at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort in Kona Hawaii. It’s a place where farmers like Greg and Gail Smith have the opportunity to build one-on-one relationships with consumers and with local chefs. It’s also a place for education - shoppers can learn a lot about what they’re purchasing, and how to cook it!
