O‘ahu’s Largest Farmers Market Reopens on Saturday
The KCC Farmers Market, put on by the Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau Federation, returns on Nov. 14 after being closed since March due to COVID-19.

It’s been more than seven months since the popular farmers market at Kapiʻolani Community College on Oʻahu shut down due to COVID-19.
In the meantime, other farmers markets ones run by the Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau Federation and the handful operated by FarmLovers Markets on Oʻahu remained open, since farmers markets are considered essential businesses.
But the KCC market, which averaged 10,000 attendees every Saturday morning and boasted more than 70 vendors from across the state, would lure too many people at once. Not exactly what you want in the middle of a health pandemic.
