Just got back from farmers market. I drove passed Maku'u on accident and ended up passed Pahoa.
Met a hitchhiker on the road named Tommy who let me know I went too far. I gave him a ride into back into Pahoa, he said we might want to check a little tiny market behind the mexican restaurant there. We did and got a good amount of produce for about $10
Drove down 130 to red road to try to find the tide pools, but never found them. Red Road is a gorgeous unbelievable worthwhile drive by itself. Ended up near some park where there were some surfers and then headed back towards home.
Drove by Maku'u and it was packed ! Kind of glad I didn't go.
Met some of our neighbors who demanded we call them Aunty and Uncle, laughed and laughed with us and gave us a bag of amazing smelling guava.
That market behind the mex place, Luquin's, doesn't have near the selection or quality of foods that you can find at the big market.
Sounds as if you made it to Pohoiki/Isaac Hale Park? By any chance, were you in a white Dodge Durango?
