Da Food Chain
Da Food Chain is an online grocery store that sells local produce and products and delivers it to your door. Here’s what they have this week:
“Carrots are bombing at Kauai Glory Farms. Plenty of pumpkins and apple bananas from Durga Farms,” says Carolyn Ornellas, Da Food Chain founder. “Soursop, tatsoi, radishes, herbs and of course avocados from Wootens Produce of Kauai. New hakurei turnips and dancy tangerines coming online from Kauai Kunana Dairy as well as avocados, rambutan, sunrise papaya and beautiful Italian eggplant. Almost everyone has arugula! AlohaLani Farm is unlisted for Tuesday delivery, but they have carrots, beets and a small amount of tomato coming on.”
I bought some of those Kauai Kunana Dairy avocados at the Saturday Namahana farmers market. They’re little, like a Haas, but wonderfully creamy and flavorful. I love them. For more information, visit Da Food Chain website.
Durga Farms
Here at Durga Farms we are currently building raised beds for our vegetable garden. We are constructing them out of reclaimed wooden pallets that will be lined with reclaimed feed bags from nearby horse farms. We will fill the beds with soil left over from the construction of our Yoga practice room! We have been treating the soil with compost tea and minerals to bring the soil back to life so we can grow more vibrantly green kale and creamy pumpkin!
We also give free tours of our farm, led by Vanessa, the farm manager. On the tour she shares her expansive knowledge of how we grow our 100 percent organic produce using permaculture methods! Our guests also learn about the variety of healing Ayurvedic herbs we are growing here. Email durgafarms@halepule.com to register for one of our upcoming tours!
We are especially excited about our budding amla tree and shatavri and ashwagandha bushes! Amla helps to promote immunity and clear skin, among many other things. Shatavri and ashwagandha also provide remedies for an impressive array of ailments! For ground cover we cultivate a very special plant called gotu kola that is known for calming the mind and enhancing meditation.
We have lots and lots of bananas available both ripe and still green! At our last count we had 44 bunches not yet picked. We’ve included a recipe for cooked bananas that is a sweet treat and healthy too! We wish we could somehow take a picture of the delicious taste of ghee and warm, cooked banana melting in our mouths! You’ll just have to try this recipe for yourself.
Serves 4. Preparation time less than 10 minutes.
- 4 soft bananas, peeled and sliced into bite size strips
- 2-3 Tbsp of ghee
- 1/2 – 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 – 1 tsp cardamom
- 1/4 tsp ginger powder
- 1/8 tsp clove powder
- 1/4 tsp mineral salt (optional)
- 10 rose petals or a few drops of rose water
Heat ghee on medium heat in a fry pan then add all spices and rose petals. When aroma is present, it will be quick, stir in the bananas. Simmer gently and stir for 1-3 minutes. Serve warm or room temperature. Enjoy!
Sara’s Raw Kitchen
My first introduction to raw food was from Sara Mangold. My story “Demystifying The Raw Food Diet” ran in Kauai Midweek after I attended one of her fun and informative workshops. She just wrote a blog post on soursop, which is being touted as a cancer cure. Sara is a cancer survivor and she tells me that she healed herself on a raw food diet. Sara’s Medicinal Soursop blog post makes me want to go out and buy one. They’re in season, I’ve seen them at the farmers markets!
Shave Ice Tege Tege
Eitaro, owner of Tege Tege Shave Ice and maker of our favorite organic, all natural shave ice, has decided to close for a few months.

EVENTS:
Saturday, January 11
Appetite for Breadfruit Workshop
Harrison Chandler Education Center at the National Tropical Botanical Garden Headquarters, 8:30 a.m. to noon, $12
The half-day Breadfruit—From Tree to Table workshop will assist Hawaii’s breadfruit growers in supplying grocery stores, restaurants and farmers markets with high quality breadfruit, and help chefs become more familiar with breadfruit handling and preparation in the kitchen.
Backyard growers and home users of breadfruit will also find the workshop pertinent to home and community use of breadfruit. The workshop teaches how to properly harvest, handle and utilize breadfruit to fully realize its commercial and community value.
Topics and speakers include: “Working with Variety”—an introduction to the three most common breadfruit varieties in Hawaii, presented by Dr. Diane Ragone, Director, Breadfruit Institute of the National Tropical Botanical Garden. “Tree to Table”—harvesting techniques, tricks and tools, and postharvest handling, presented by Ian Cole, Collection Manager, Breadfruit Institute of the National Tropical Botanical Garden. “Beyond Sticky” and “Some Like It Sweet”—basic preparation of breadfruit for use in a variety of dishes or for storage, and using breadfruit at all stages including making gourmet dishes from ripe breadfruit, presented by John Cadman, Pono Pies. “Going To Market”—marketing and value added products, presented by Craig Elevitch, Hawaii Homegrown Food Network and Hooulu ka Ulu project. “Ka Mai Ka Ulu”—revealing the cultural significance of ulu in Hawaii through moolelo and Cultural Collection items presented by the Bishop Museum Culture Education staff (Oahu only). “Food From the Gods”— breadfruit and the cultural importance in the Pacific Islands, presented by Wayne ‘Palala’ Harada (Kauai only.)
Due to the sales and distribution of thousands of breadfruit trees in Hawaii, the production of breadfruit is expected to increase dramatically over the next few years—representing millions of dollars in potential retail sales of breadfruit in the next 5 to 8 years. Breadfruit can also play an increased key role in island food self-sufficiency, as it has been a primary staple food in the Pacific for thousands of years.
Breadfruit—From Tree to Table is presented by the Hooulu ka Ulu—Revitalizing Breadfruit project and is cosponsored by the State of Hawaii Department of Agriculture and Kamehameha Schools. The Oahu workshop is also presented by the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum.

Invasion: Little Fire Ants in Hawaii
In 2009, Waihee farmer Christina Chang was stung on the eye by a tiny ant at her home on Maui. She suspected, and the Hawaii Department of Agriculture confirmed, that this ant was the little fire ant, Wasmannia auropunctata, never before found on Maui. The detection spurred creation of a new documentary, Invasion: Little Fire Ants in Hawaii.
Invasive species introductions to Hawaii often end in regret and a list of should-haves. This film, produced by the Maui Invasive Species Committee, aims to change the result of the arrival of little fire ants in Hawaii. Featuring videography from award-winning film makers Masako Cordray and Chris Reickert, this half-hour film examines the biology, impacts, and potential solutions to the spread of little fire ants through interviews with scientists, farmers, and community on the Big Island reeling from the impacts of this miniscule, but devastating, ant. Viewers will learn how to identify and report new infestations, helping to protect Hawaii from this small stinging ant.
The Waihee site is on target for eradication. However, little fire ants have recently been detected moving between islands, raising concern about the establishment of new infestations. On Hawaii Island, the little fire ant is now widespread in the Hilo area where efforts are focused on educating landowners about control options. Infestations are now occurring on the Kona side as well. Research on effective control continues by the Hawaii Ant Lab, a joint project of the Hawaii Department of Agriculture (HDOA) and University of Hawaii. The little fire ant on Kauai is contained within a 12-acre area under active control by HDOA.
The film will premiere on Maui January 8th at the McCoy Theater at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. Doors open at 5pm. An awards ceremony and panel discussion will follow the screening. Food and beverages are available for purchase on site beginning at 4:30pm.
Screenings on other islands will follow. Please RSVP to miscpr@hawaii.edu to reserve a seat. Below is the current screening schedule:
Maui: January 8, McCoy Theater and the Maui Arts and Cultural Center, 5 p.m.
Oahu: January 13, Cafe Julia at the YWCA, 1040 Richard St, 4:30 p.m.
Kauai: January 18, Kauai Community College Performing Arts Center, 5 p.m.
Hilo: TBA (February 18)
Kona: February 19, Aloha Performing Arts Center, 5 p.m.
The film will also air throughout the state on KITV:
Sat 1/11 630-7PM
Sunday 1/12 9-9:30AM
Sat 1/19 4-4:30PM
Sunday 1/20 10:30-11P
Funding and support for the film was provided by the Hawaii Department of Agriculture, County of Maui-Office of Economic Development, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Hawaii Community Foundation-Pikake Fund, Maui Electric Company, Alexander and Baldwin Foundation, Tri-Isle RC&D. MISC and the Hawaii Ant Lab are collaborative projects of the Pacific Cooperative Studies Unit.

Farm to Table Dinner
Kauai Kunana Dairy, $190
Outstanding in the Field returns to Hawaii this Winter to stage five family-style feasts at five farms on Maui, Kauai, Hawaii and Oahu. The roving farm-dinner troupe, which has inspired pop-up supper clubs across North America and around the world, is partnering with four island chefs and an Oahu-born chef who’s made his mark in San Francisco’s culinary scene.
“Each time we come to Hawaii, we’re blown away by the variety of exotic fruits and vegetables that grow on the islands,” says OITF founding chef and artist Jim Denevan. “We always discover something new, and once again we’re looking forward to working with some of Hawaii’s most exciting chefs. And we’re excited to bring one of our favorite San Francisco chefs back home to the islands!”
Join guest chef Ron Miller, executive chef and owner of Hukilau Lanai in Kapaa in Kilauea for dinner at a long graceful table set at Kauai Kunana Dairy. Last year at Olana Farm, guest chef Ron Miller of Hukilau Lanai served a dessert that several guests said was the best thing they’d ever tasted. This year, we set up Ron’s field kitchen at the Wooten family’s Kunana Goat Dairy, a source for some of the ingredients of that perfect dessert.
Outstanding in the Field stages outdoor dining events across North America and around the world, placing its long signature table at country farms and ranches, in urban gardens and sea caves, on mountaintops and sandy beaches. Wherever it goes, OITF’s mission is the same: To re-connect diners to the land and the origins of their food and introduce them to the local farmers and food artisans whose good work brings nourishment to the table. Ingredients for the meal are often sourced within inches of diners’ seats. After a tour of the host site, everyone settles in: farmers, ranchers, fishermen, food artisans and guests serving each other at the communal table.
Since 1999, when Denevan did his first farm dinner in his hometown of Santa Cruz, Calif., Outstanding in the Field’s culinary caravan has staged more than 500 “table to farm” events, welcoming nearly 60,000 guests for family-style feasts in the U.S. and Canada as well as Europe and South America.
Outstanding in the Field events start with a glass of wine and welcome hors d’oeuvres, followed by a tour of the host farm and a four-course meal paired with wines. Ticket prices are all inclusive. Events start at 2pm and end after sunset.
For more information, and to reserve a seat at the visit the Outstanding in the Field website.

Farmers Market Class
Wednesdays, 3 to 4 p.m., $30
Meet local farmers, learn how to select perfect produce as well as when it’s in season and how to cook with it during Tasting Kauai’s one-hour farmers market class. I saw friends at the farmers market who were visiting from Colorado. As we hugged and said hello, I saw a table full of near-rotten mangos. It was still snowing in Denver and my friends were excited about the big, beautiful tomatoes they just bought. Their faces fell when I told them they were not grown on Kauai. I felt bad for them, and was inspired to offer this class.
Farmers markets are an affordable way to immerse yourself in local culture and the best place to buy produce that’s so fresh, it was harvested that morning. But buying at the farmers market doesn’t always insure that it was grown on Kauai. It happens all over the world. In Hawaii, customers want mangos year-round. In Colorado, they want tomatoes in May. To make that sale, vendors buy imported mangoes or tomatoes and sell them as their own. Customers unfamiliar with the seasons can insure their dollars are spent on local products by learning how to identify locally grown produce.
There’s a whole world of delicious produce that many people never try. Let’s face it, some of it looks like it came from another planet. Once unfamiliar produce is demystified and cooking tips are shared, it may become a regular at dinner table. Many factors can make exotic produce expensive and the last thing you want to do is buy a pineapple that isn’t at peak perfection. This class will also teach you how to tell when produce is ripe as well as how to store it for best results. For reservations, call 808-635-0257.
