From Hawai‘i Public Radio:
A grocery store on wheels. That’s the goal of Farm Link Hawaiʻi, an online platform that customers can use to purchase local produce and other goods.
The company started in 2015 with the goal to connect farmers to consumers. When the pandemic hit, they took a more direct approach to that mission, instituting a home delivery model.
In just the past few months, they've expanded their free delivery options and started offering local meat.
Farm Link Hawaiʻi CEO Claire Sullivan says the company’s growth is promising, but challenges remain on the path to maintaining a local food system in Hawai‘i.
