Eat the Rainbow! Intro to How Colorful Foods Can Heal Your Body! (Fruits & Veggies Monday)

You are so darn lucky!!!! I was at the store the other day and guess what they sell now .. Frozen dragonfruit .. LOL!!! I of course would prefer the fresh but I may pick up a bag of frozen to have in my freezer .. we know how darn hard it is to find fresh around this neck of the woods :)

Just made a bunch of pepper jams with dragonfruit!

Wonderful!!!!!! Are you going to do a post on the pepper jams - would love to see how you make it :) Sounds delicious!!!! SUNSHINE247

Yes, I plan too along with my "secret" recipes. I am extremely busy right now gearing up for the tourist season and holidays as I make and sell at the Farmer's Market. I will take photos as I am making new jams and butters. Hopefully I can remember this contest. LOL

These were some of the best dragonfruit!!

Beautiful!!!!!!! Lucky you .. look at all that goodness!!!!

Oh yes, and I get my fresh organic fruits by the boxes full and at a huge discount. I also do trades. fresh organic veggies and fresh organic eggs are also plentiful. I grow some veggies but I also like supporting the local community. A lot of the vendors give away what they don't sell to other vendors, so most of the time I go home with lots of veggies and fresh herbs. We just all help and support each other as all communities should be doing. It's a small town, so we all know each other.

I love everything about your posts here @thetreehugs, first of all @sunshine247 and I have been having a rough time getting her dragonfruits for my recipes! ;) Where are you? Probably closer to her than I am... I wonder if @sunshine247 could get her dragonfruit from you! ;)

Second, I love farmer's markets, get 90% of my food from them and am always advocating for buying locally so I love hearing about your experience and about the community within your own market, that's wonderful to hear <3

I am on the big Island of Hawaii in the Kau district. where are you? (Naalehu) I don't have ay yet in my yard but I get them from the aunties. They are pretty plentiful right now.

Oh lovely! I am kind of across from you over in Bali, Indonesia! <3 I have always wanted to make my way to Hawaii- next time I have to fly back West, I am going to make sure I have a pit stop in!

So lucky! They're out of season for us :( We can still get them but they're quite expensive so I have just come to terms with waiting until next season ;)

Oh awesome! Was it pink?

Yes and yummy. already made into spicy pepper jams!

OH I wish I could have some <3 Sounds perfect!

Yes, all my products are yummy and organic. Come visit the Big Island and I will send you back with some.

Do you mean it? Because I am the type that will take you up on that my dear @thetreehugs, I love meeting friends all over the world! I ended up in New Zealand for 3 months because I met a couple on the street that had a farm and were loosely talking about what I was dreaming of soooo when can I come? ;) <3

Hey anytime! If you like working on farms and decide you want to stick around a bit i'll hook you up with a fun group in Kona that are always going on crazy adventures.

Oh wow that sounds amazing! :) I'll have to work that into my travel plans, now that I have an excuse <3

You don't need an excuse, just do what feels right . lol
