Where is the largest cattle farm in North America. Wyoming? No. Montana? No. Parker Ranch's 175,000 acres sprawl across the Big Island, Hawaii making it one of the largest in the country. Hawaii's rolling green mountains and gentle rainfall creates ideal conditions for intimate farms to produce incredible products.
As a fan of cheese (having spent a substantial part of my youth in Wisconsin), I was reluctant to jump on Hawaii's cheese band wagon, particularly their funky goat cheese blends, but as it turns out, the sweet/tangy combination of mango goat cheese made me a convert. Hawaiian farmers are keenly aware of their environmental impact, so sustainable farming is growing trend in Hawaii, you may witness vegetable oil generators, such is the case at Makawao mushroom farm.
If you'd like to experience some of these artisan products for yourself, while talking to the farmers who cultivate the land.
