Mahi’ai Match Up Winners: De La Mesa Farms

Posted

It is with great pride that we Congratulate Bryan & Natalie Mesa as our Mahi’ai Match Up WINNERS! Through our partnerships with Kamehameha Schools & Ulupono Initiative we were able to make something like this happen to continue the good work of scaling our farmers and growing our local food system & economy.  Mahalo to all the GoFarmers who entered the competition and all the judges that gave their time and feedback.  What an incredible honor it is to see how far our AgIncubators have come and the possibility of where they are going.  This is just the beginning…

Please head over to the De la Mesa HQ to read their thoughts on the WIN & keep connected for what they have in store for their #ScaleUp

Mahalo again for everyone’s support!

 

Celebrating Variety! at The Variety Showcase Goes Tropical

Posted

A big, bright Mahalo to The Culinary Breeding Network for all their contributions to the Food & Farm Scene and for selecting Hawaii as their first satellite Variety Show outside of Portland.

We are very glad you decided to #GoTropical 🙂  Another grand thank you to all the Farmers, Chefs, Breeders, Teams, Talents, Creatives and Cool People that brought everything together (especially our very own Jay Bost- Captain of the Farm Nerds;). Our hearts, brains & bellies are so full.

Here’s a blurb and some pics:)
 
The Variety Showcase Goes Tropical 3/13
It was an exciting Celebration at The Variety Showcase Goes Tropical Event hosted by the Culinary Breeding Network & GoFarm Hawaii this March at Kapiolani Community College. An array of mind blowing crop varietals combined with culture and cuisine were brought together and blended brilliantly in bite sized tastings made by local Chefs at over 15 action stations.  Agricultural leadership on all levels and farmers on all scales attended to see what’s being conjured up in the food & farm scene for Hawaii’s future. Mahalo to all who supported the event and we hope to see everyone at the next one.
FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
If you have fear of missing out, here’s a few teasers from the event to give you an idea of what happened while you were somewhere else:)))
Let’s start with a little dessert… Daniel & Kelly’s Green Gold Avo Key Lime Pie
Gabe’s Banana Cookies & Cream
Rob & Scott’s Jicama Pancake
A little Main Dish…
Ted & Roy’s Moringa Malungay Fried Rice & Lechon Lomi
The Appetizer Type
Jim & Bryan’s MH8 Pepper Ceviche
A few Crop Varietals for your Visuals:

That’s all we can muster right now… It was quite the whirlwind.  If you were there you witnessed the magic, if you weren’t, click here to see all the professional photos by Photographer Shawn Linehan.
