Salute to Kauai Farmers

Here's a photo of my friend Sherwood  Conant holding one of his prize winning mini watermelons. Sherwood farmed for  many years here in Kilauea , growing fruits and vegetables. A mainstay of our stand for years, some of his trees are still giving fruit to other farmers. We miss his bell peppers and talk story sessions though. He works for the State Dept of Agriculture and they are lucky to have him as he knows farming  from the ground up.
