Meet Jr. Boi

Monday, November 30th, 2009

jrboi21Lance Kaanoi better known as Jr. Boi the poi man.

Jr. Boi gets his taro from local farmers and does all the hard work for us before filling it into 1 pound tubs for our eating pleasure.  He also gets fresh fish from the local fishermen to prepare awesome poke and dried aku.

He is an extremely resourceful individual as I found out when recently visiting his home off Nakini Street.  His backyard is filled with banana trees, noni and chickens - free range hens that lay beautiful eggs.  His chickens love to eat noni and they are fed flax seed (omega 3 source) assorted grains, fruits and vegetables.

Jr. Boi has made his products available to our market and they have been added to the website for sale.

As an extra added bonus - he will sell you chicks if you wish to have your own fresh eggs!!

See our website for the new products.

Luau is healthy, nutritious and oh so ono.  On sale at our next market (11/14) for $8.10 per bag.

Avocados "to die for"

These avocados are from a farm in our farmlots and I heard are ‘to die for’.  This is an example of how our market can help you make some money - by selling what grows in your yard.  If you have something great to eat in your yard please contact us - we are always looking for fresh food to sell!
