Vanilla extract is a staple in any pantry, but high-quality extract will elevate any dessert. Whether you want to make your own extract at home or purchase some premade, you'll find Oahu's finest vanilla beans and products at Laie Vanilla Company's pop-up tent at the Kaka'ako Farmer's Market.

Weekly Kaka'ako Farmer's Market at Ward Village 

Every Saturday from 8 a.m to 12 p.m., you can find Laie Vanilla Company at the Kaka'ako Farmer's Market. Their pop-up tent is located on the Makai (ocean) side of the market. 

When you visit, experience pure Hawaiian vanilla firsthand. Their offerings include beans, extract, kits, and, on occasion, plants for sale. These are stronger than the typical grocery store products and only become more potent and flavorful in time. Their family farm in Laie is the only one of its type on Oahu and is committed to natural farming practices that limit the use of pesticides. 

Stop By the Farmer's Market This Week 

Whether you live in the Honolulu area or are visiting, plan to visit the Kaka'ako Farmer's Market on Saturday morning and pick up some vanilla beans or extract. You can also shop the Laie Vanilla Company catalog on their website. To learn more about their offerings, call (808) 209-3354.
