Today in The Garden Island, we head to the Hanapepe Cafe to visit chef Helen Lacono and her family in “Evening Delight” as she returns to cooking on just Friday nights during Hanapepe Art Night.

If you’ve ever had noni, you’ll likely never forget the taste. In last week’s On the Farm column, we examined why you may want to make the pungent fruit a regular part of your diet. The benefits of noni include that it’s 75 percent as effective at killing pain as morphine, and not at all addictive. Here’s a little insight from organic noni farmer Steve Frailey into why it’s better to drink unfermented noni juice and how to make your own.

We’ve had folks inquire about where to find us online. We’re on Twitter at @TastingKauai and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/TastingKauai. Be sure to check Tasting Kauai’s Pinterest page!

Tasting Kauai received an email from some of our favorite farmers. It provides an update, and the email has been left intact (we added the links) because it provides such a heartfelt update as to what Sun and Lisa and their farm Kumu Aina are up to. The good news is, we can buy their superb produce at the farmers market again. Whooty Woot!

For those of you who are not familiar with One Song Farm, Kumu Aina, or farmers Lisa Fuller and Sun, they are some of Kauai’s most sought after farmers, and their produce quickly sells out at the farmers market. Thick lines form in front of their stand before the market opens, and customers have been known to fight over their produce. In April of this year, One Song Farm relocated from Moloaa to Kalihiwai and reemerged as Kumu Aina, or “land as teacher”. The couple will focus on educational workshops on growing organically and sustainably with an emphasis on building healthy soil. Lucky for us, they decided to grow a small market garden. Now, from Sun and Lisa. Continue Reading →
