So, all you people out there who have never visited Waimanalo Country Farms, this is your chance. I did the hay ride. You get to hear a live story from the driver. No such thing as prerecording. It's like a historic museum ride about this farm. This farm strictly ran by a family of six generation if I remember correctly. I also got to try their lovely pumpkin pie and sweet tea. They were extremely fresh and good. I like to believe that they made it from scratch since they have all the ingredients.

It was our first day visiting Hawaii and still quite early in the day after checking in at our…read morehotel, renting our car and also checking out local eateries at Waikiki before coming down to this side of the island. We visited because we saw ads of the pumpkin patch and wanted to check it out ourselves. Military gets an entry discount for visiting too. This place also offers a riding tour on one of the trailers, there's also one for kids on a different ride. The most interesting part is the farm, we love seeing cute and small animals, the goats were the most active at the location, the donkeys were also loud. You can also feed the goats by visiting the food booth and paying one of the staff members for a cup of dried green bites. We took lots of pics, it was getting hot for us but what ever, it's Hawaii. Our favorite part was the sunflower field, it was away from the crowd and we can choose any lane to take pics, just watch out for bees if you're afraid of them or can't tell between wasps, yellow jackets or bees. It looked like a lot of the good pumpkins were already picked out so the pumpkin field looked pretty decent, the swing that's at the pumpkin patch area was a nice touch though.

For example, mangoes are primarily available in summer and durians are in the winter. Please call for more information on availability. Stolen from - https://www.frankiesnurseryllc.com/ Da wahine heard about Frankie's from one of her friends and was adamant about visiting the farm. So off the farm we went... Drive slow, not need to ruin your car, the road is a bit rough when you start going deep into the nursery. Frankie's is on the Windward side, but basically in the mountains. You really need to know where you are going, it's most definitely off the beaten path. Cell reception starts to get much weaker... almost non existent. There are a healthy variety of plants for you to purchase, Frankie's is after all a nursery. But the main focus of this trip was to try the exotic fruits. They sell a variety of exotic fruits from around the world. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and will gladly tell you about the fruits. They do have cut fruit platters for you to try, just make sure you bring a cooler bag, it's a journey onto itself to get here. There are few picnic tables in the back for you to enjoy fresh fruits, along with a hand washing station and a restroom. #ExoticFruits: ~ BLACK SAPOTE topped off with Whipped Cream - 5/5 Amazing. A MUST TRY! I never had anything like this. Nature's Chocolate Pudding!! ~ Exotic Fruit platter - 4.5/5 The platter changes on a regular basis... depending on availability and seasons. I never heard of some of these fruits. The best way to try a little of everything. Some of the fruits were delish, some very strange. I'd love to return and try some of the other fruits.

As…read moremany malls have various scheduled events Ala Moana for it's location and size does seem to fall flat in that part of the community was a delighted to see Mahiku Farmers Market making its presence every Tuesday from 3pm-7pm on the Mall Level right outside Target in the Mauka Wing. Farmers Market unlike more popular craft fairs is another great venue to support and bring in small local businesses as the combination of this makes it a great convenience in our busy lives to get that something either a snack for that retail therapy refuel, quench your thirst or just that special find I almost got for myself. The rough start is that there was just a handful of vendors...less than ten...sob! It was quite depressing and hope that it will grow as it gets to be a familiar thing as they used to be at the International Marketplace you can find Mahiku Farmer Market and at Hyatt Regency Waikiki, Waikele Premium Outlets, Mililani Shopping Center and Kapilina Beach Homes in Ewa. They don't do very much social media so knowing their locations are difficult but I do have hope for Ala Moana as the holiday approaches as any additional choices are very appreciated and welcome especially to support local. Thank you!

Yesterday, it was for the Nagaoka fireworks display to commemorate the end of World War II. Today, it was for the Biggest Little Airshow. At both events I found 'Nalo Made Lemonade. They offer it in regular, pineapple, mango, strawberry, lilikoi and li hing. They only offer it in a 32 oz. mason jar. It's $7 and $4 for a refill when you bring back the jar. This is a better deal than Wow Wow Lemonade, which is the other lemonade vendor. They charge $10 initially, then $6 for the refill. I also prefer the 'Nalo Made Lemonade. It's not as watered down. It actually has a strong lemon flavor and it's not as tangy. I like the mango flavor and the hubby likes the lilikoi. The mango is just a tad bit sweeter, which is perfect for me. They also have two different stickers for their jars, which I found out today. The clear sticker jar is the girl and the black sticker is the boy.
