Hawaii is host to at least 100 varieties of Mangoes from all over the world. Some are so exceptional that you can not get enough and the season is over in a blink of an eye. Depending on the location and elevation of the trees one can find mangoes as early as April through December. The season for the most production is around May through August. Pictured is a Pirie mango that is either white or yellow fleshed. If you ever have the opportunity to try one you will be spoiled! Most mango spoils as it gets soft. Pirie gets better as it gets soft...sooooo sweet!
Here is a small picture of our magnificent view from our market!
As you can see one has the opportunity to experience an expansive space to really enjoy the market! This is just a small piece of the pie we call the Upcountry Farmers Market. Come Celebrate our community every Saturday morning!
