Now when you pick up your groceries from Hoku Whole Foods in Kapa‘a you can also pick up a box of local, fresh beyond organic produce from Kaua‘i’s Farmers Co-op — a Community Supported Agriculture Program.
Community Supported Agriculture is a system that builds a symbiotic relationship between farmers and the community. Members pledge to a long-term commitment of supporting and receiving weekly boxes of produce grown by local farmers. The co-op has been created to enable residents to become more involved in the island’s food security. This model offers an outlet for local growers to provide a direct source of organic food to the community.
Hoku Whole Foods in Kapa‘a is an online grocery store with a warehouse located in Kapa‘a. The warehouse will become the pick-up location for the fresh organic vegetables from the CSA. Learn more about the CSA at hokuwholefoods.com or call, 821-1500. The Kaua‘i Farmers Co-op is currently taking new members at kauaifarmerscoop@yahoo.com.
There are already pick-up locations in Kilauea and if enough East Side residents show interest there will be an additional one at Hoku Whole Foods.
