From fresh produce and ready-made snacks to handmade pastries, tropical flowers, and unique gifts--there's something for everyone! Arrive early; the best finds tend to go fast. My kids enjoyed the fresh cane juice they were making on site! We may try to go again before we leave to get some more snacks!

Sold us rotten papayas--check your fruit before leaving…read more We visited the farmers market on Tuesday afternoon and bought papayas from a vendor located toward the middle, on the left side. He offered us a sample of ripe papaya, and we asked to purchase one. Instead, he quickly placed three papayas into a bag and told us it was a better deal. Because we were managing two children, we felt rushed and did not inspect each one before leaving. When we returned to our hotel, all three papayas were badly rotten, smelled terrible, and were completely inedible. Based on how quickly the vendor selected and bagged the fruit himself, this did not feel like an innocent mistake. Please inspect every piece of fruit carefully, choose it yourself, and do not allow anyone to rush you into buying more than you requested. We were extremely disappointed and wanted to warn other shoppers.

Would add that it's not the easiest set up for those with accessibility challenges to navigate because all stalls are largely situated on a big patch of grass. Parking is limited so I would recommend carpooling when possible. Could definitely feel the island vibes with music playing from some stalls, and locals catching up with the farmers and vendors while selecting their produce for the week. Prices are comparable to those at the grocery stores. Would definitely recommend checking out when around the area.

10/26/24 Grove Farms farmers market is located at a park across from the Kauai Community College,…read moreSaturdays starting at 9 am. I look forward to this one because it's one of the bigger, more established farmers market. A few years back, I think it was located at the parking lot of the community college itself with more food trucks. The vendors are friendly & most give out samples. I am more inclined to purchase if the vendor is generous with samples (hint hint wink wink) Of note, it's in a grassy area & can get pretty murky/muddy after a rain. Parking is where you can find it at the park. There's of course fresh fruits & vegetables in season, cooked foods (Filipino, Thai, Korean & much more). The one that stood out was the Honey (Yellow) watermelon-- the vendor was all smiles & offered generous samples of the fruit. Oh my, my, my!! It was so sweet, crisp & mouthwateringly delicious! I couldn't pass it up. The sticker price was by size & I asked the vendor to pick a good one for me-- Yokes! $14 Wowzah. That's the most I have ever paid for any watermelon EVER. This had better me a life-changing delicious pick hahaha. We shall see. I was planning on getting my veggies here for my Sinigang (Filipino sour soup): got Ongchoy (kang-kong), okra & small taro--it is called gabi in Tagalog & gandus in Kapampangan. I love gandus coz is definitely creamier in texture compared to the big taro that is used for making poi. I always look forward to visiting this farmers market but sometimes we're not in the area when it is here. I was fortunate to have visited this time. UPDATE: the honey watermelon was sooooo worth it. Come & try!

Tucked into the side of the road, it's pretty easy to drive past this fruit stand if you're not paying attention. They have a pretty stocked selection of fresh fruits.

The owners/workers are so friendly too. Check their site for more info and reserve for a tour!

The flavors, the texture, the freshness, everything is just spot on every single time. And honestly, it's not just the açaí bowls. Pretty much everything on the menu stands out. The smoothies are incredible, the ingredients always taste fresh, and somehow everything feels healthy while still tasting great. One of my favorite spots to grab something quick that actually tastes amazing. The staff and management are awesome too, and the whole place just has a really good vibe. You can genuinely feel the Aloha in everything they do. God, I love this place. Here's a tip: order online from their website and skip the line. There is always a line and it's so much faster to just walk in and have your item already waiting for you. You just go straight to the counter for pick up and bingo bango.
