Grown on Oahu Bus Tour
Reserve your seat Today!

As part of the conference, a Grown On Oahu Bus Tour will be offered for the first time ever, on Saturday September 25, 2010 with pick up from the front lobby entrance of the Ihilani Resort at 8am, and return at 2pm. This exclusive, Grown on Oahu bus tour shows how Oahu farmers have diversified to supplement their farm income.

This tour will be an up close and personal view of how three different agricultural operations created sustainability and innovation which resulted in their ongoing growth and survival in Hawaii's challenging agricultural industry.

Our first stop will be at Kahuku Farm which is a family-owned operation growing papayas, mangos, eggplant, taro leaves and vanilla. Then we'll head to North Shore Cattle Company, to see how the efforts of one man has turned into a legacy in Hawaii Ranching, and finally, the old adage that it takes a "village to raise a child" is demonstrated daily at Ma'o Organic Farms, where agriculture offers more than food for this Waianae community.

If checking out that day, please ask bellmen to hold your luggage. Price is $50 per person, plus tax. Lunch included, chicken or vegetarian. Seating is limited and offered online till September 17, 2010. Any seats left will be offered at the conference on 9/23 directly from the Hawaii AgriTourism Association table. No tickets will be mailed. Simply print a copy of your receipt. For inquiries email, info@hiagtourism.org
