The Locavore Store

We are a grassroots grocer specializing in the edible, oft-times unique, abundance of Hawaii Island. From grass-fed meats and cheeses, seasonal and exotic fruits, veggies, and greens, to freshly expelled oils, micro-roasted coffees and spices to pottery and crafts – we proudly feature only Hawai’i-sourced goods. Each week our shelves are stocked by over 80 local family farms, gardeners, and artisans. Take home some chocolate hot sauce, a fresh cut of honeycomb, maybe some wild-crafted sea salt or a durian fruit roll-up! Whatever you take home, you’ll be supporting one of our hard-working, local families, so thanks.

Established in 2010.
We began distributing local food for a few of our farmy neighbors at the local farmers markets in 2010. Through an organic process of hard work, collaboration and creativity, we now have a storefront to work out of. You’ll still find the offerings of some of our original, farmy neighbors, as well as many new farms and artisans. We’re so proud to represent the work and creative-genius of so many incredible individuals and operations.

Catarina and Arthur Z.
Business Owner
We have had 14 years combined experience in sustainably-focused farming and off-grid living on the Big Island of Hawai’i. We love the work we do in the thick of our community and being surrounded by the inspiring folks, farmers, and craftspeople who have made The Locavore Store a success. This island has taught us so much and we couldn’t be more humbled by the opportunity to share what we’ve learned, along with the knowledge, experience, and bounty of so many others, in a beautiful setting, with people who are as stoked to be here as we are. 🙂
