Kohala Grown Market

4.8(159 reviews)

About

Kohala Grown Market, on Hawaii (Big Island), sits at 55-3419 Akoni Pule Hwy in Hawi, at the northern tip of the island. First-time visitors should expect a compact market stop in a small plantation-era town rather than a large retail complex, so a short visit fits easily into a drive around the north.

Visitors rate the market 4.8 out of 5 across 159 reviews, a strong record for a spot of its size. Its position in Hawi makes it reachable from Waimea and the Kohala Coast, while Kailua-Kona, Hilo, Volcano, Puna, Captain Cook and Kona sit further afield. The website at http://www.kohalagrownmarket.com/ carries further background on the market.

Hawaii's islands have windward and leeward coasts, with wetter and drier conditions respectively, so the northern Kohala area can be greener than the Kona side. Spam, rice and macaroni salad appear widely in home cooking and lunch plates across the islands, which is useful when putting together a picnic.

Hawaii was an independent kingdom before annexation by the United States in 1898 and became a state in 1959, a history that shapes place names across the island. Hawaiian culture includes hula dance, oli chants and the voyaging traditions of Polynesian navigators, and these are part of what a visitor encounters around Hawi and the wider Kohala district.
