About Us
Hawaii's Voice of Agriculture
HAWAII FARM BUREAU'S MISSION
The Hawaii Farm Bureau, serving as Hawaii’s voice of agriculture protects, advocates, and advances the social, economic and educational interest of our diverse agricultural community.
OUR PURPOSE
The Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau is a grassroots non-profit organization founded by Hawaiʻi farmers and ranchers and working with organizations, communities and individuals involved in all aspects of the Agricultural Industry in Hawaiʻi. The Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau is organized to unify the County Farm Bureaus, thereby enhancing the knowledge, economic opportunity, prosperity, well being and happiness of its members; to analyze and resolve the problems that face agriculture through effective cooperation, planning and representation; to promote farmers’ and ranchers’ access to the physical, financial, intellectual, and human resources necessary for successful and profitable agriculture; and to ensure the protection and health of Hawaiʻi’s agricultural resources and the environment today and in the future.
Our guiding policies originate at the grassroots County Farm Bureau level with the ideas, opinions and contributions of our concerned membership. We encourage the participation of every member, and try to have open communication with them through our annual convention, and county meetings. Policies are adopted after discussion at our County and State meetings.
WHAT WE DO
Advocacy
The Farm Bureau is active in government affairs and some our legislative goals address land use policies, water, agricultural marketing programs and more.
Farmers Markets
Our truly authentic farmers markets feature an incredible selection of Hawaii grown products including fresh produce, plants, proteins, value-added products & ready-to-eat foods.
Farm Fair
Every summer, the annual Hawaii State Farm Fair is a Hawaiii's premier agricultural event that promotes awareness of our local agricultural and ranching industries.
