Seed to Table Experience

For spring break 2014 we visited the isle of Hawaii. On our first morning we headed to the farmers market for the chef shuttle. It was a beautiful Saturday morning.

 
William likes his beets.
 

 
Big Hawaiian avocadoes. 
 

 
 
Rambutan is an interesting exotic fruit, similar to leeches. Mild in flavor.

 
William had fun helping chef pick out tomatoes for dinner.
 

 
 
He also loved running around the farms.

 
We loved the farmers! Harvesting green beans for dinner. He also harvested cucumbers, zucchini, and squash. 
 

 
Where is William?
 

 
Arrabella having a taste of some fresh strawberries.
 

 
Strawberry fields.
 


This was a very unique experience and my personal favorite part of this trip, beside maybe these Hawaiian margaritas!!!
 
It was so fun seeing the ingredients used in our dinner. We had some tasty dishes. This one is duck with coconut risotto and beet leaves.
 

 
Strawberry shortcake.
