Farmers market(s) - Cindy V - 03-01-2006 Aloha all, I know there are many farmer's markets happening, but what is the opinion of this forum for the "best" I'm looking for a good assortment of fruits and veggis and whatever else? mahalo Cindy RE: Farmers market(s) - John S Rabi - 03-01-2006 The Hilo farmers market is the best for selection, bar none. However, I enjoy the Makuu Market too, it's more eclectic! John S.

It seems it would be better if the boat just came in on Saturday! I agree with John, as to the differences in the two markets. Cathie and I enjoy going to the Makuu market and getting tamale plates for $5.00 each. They are ono! Royall What goes around comes around! Edited by - Royall on 03/01/2006 19:57:23 RE: Farmers market(s) - Howard - 03-01-2006 We've found that the relative quality of produce in the two markets varies; some weeks it is better in Hilo and other weeks it is better in Makuu. Makuu has a big advantage in other areas, however - we like the beef ribs at the barbecue stand at the south end of the market at Makuu, and last week we got a great chocolate cake at a stand called Nena's Breads 'n' More. Both of these vendors are there on Sundays only. Howard RE: Farmers market(s) - nanasohana - 03-01-2006 The Keaau market is a favorite of mine...smaller but really good quality and prices are reasonable. RE: Farmers market(s) - jdirgo - 03-01-2006 Howard, you mentioned 2 of my favorite vendors at the Makuu Market. I love Nena's coconut cake (just get there early because it sells out fast when she has it) John Dirgo, RA, ABR, e-PRO RE/MAX Properties 808-987-9243 cell |
