Who We Are

We are extremely proud of Hawaiian agriculture. The industry whether farming or ranching, inherently produces high quality products. As a cooperative we’ve identified the need to support the growth of independent, socially disadvantaged farms and aspiring farms. We’ve launched Independent Farmers United to advocate and educate those interested in farming or currently have a farm but are experiencing challenges to sustain. By exchanging knowledge and best practices amongst our peers we believe we can encourage our agricultural community to thrive far beyond the current status.
