A big crowd filled the grounds at the Maui County Agriculture Festival at the Maui Tropical Plantation in Waikapu.
Farmers of vegetables, flowers, livestock and other local products were on hand to share their goods with the community.
Organizer Charlene Kauhane said the festival drew its largest crowd to date.
“It just ended, and it’s still packed,” she said. “It was a tremendous success, and it really shows us that the community really cares about agriculture on Maui.”
Kauhane said more than 6,500 people attended the festival, an increase of about 1,000 over last year.
