Re gtill's comments about the ease with which soybeans are grown in Hawaii, I would ask for some specific instances and locations of any soybean growers on the island.
Also, what is the specific source of the story about soybeans in Kohala?
In the Hilo farmers market sometimes there are boiled-salted green soybeans in-pod. Locally grown for sure.
As for soybeans to make bean curd, tempe, etc? Don't I wish!
