The history of the market all started in 1988 by Mike Rankin with only 4 vendors at its outset. As time went on, the market gained popularity for its offering of fresh island fruits and vegetables to tropical flowers and plants and hand-made craft items. On Wednesday and Saturday the Hilo Farmers Market is truly a spectacle to behold with hundreds of vendors, artisans and delicious food trucks to try out. Occupying almost 3 full city blocks, the items sold are direct from the farmer, crafter, and baker to you, at a reasonable price and refundable if defective or spoiled.
