Besides beautiful beaches and scenery, Hawaii has a world-renowned culinary scene, and for good reason. Not only is there a wealth of delicious food grown on Hawaii's farms,  but there are also many talented chefs and culinary influences from around the world.

Our week-long Big Island trip for the  Hawaii sustainability documentary continues with a stop at Hirabara Farms. This 3-acre parcel sits at 2,900 feet above sea level in Waimea. It is owned by farmers Kurt and Pam Hirabara, and together they produce 13 varieties of baby lettuce and about 2,400 pounds each week exclusively for island chefs.
