Our Brand

Mari’s Gardens is a family owned and operated farm. We are located in Mililani on the island of O‘ahu. Our mission is to promote sustainable living, urban farming, and buying local. We are dedicated to using aquaponic and hydroponic growing techniques to produce high quality vegetables, fruits, and fish for our community. We also grow a wide variety of ornamental plants for indoors and outdoors. We offer farm tours, farm to table dinners in the garden, workshop events, private events, and more!

With limited natural resources, a delicate ecological system, and high costs of of agricultural lands and electricity in Hawaii, Mari’s Gardens has turned to the most sustainable, technologically progressive methods of farming to join local farmers in the goal of attaining food security for our islands. When you shop at a local farm, you are directly supporting this goal and you are supporting local families.

OUR COMMITMENT TO HAWAII

FOOD SAFETY

As the largest Aquaponic farm in Hawaii, we feel that it is our responsibility to set the highest quality of standards for this emerging industry. We take great pride in knowing that our employees are 100% committed to our Food Safety Plan (FSP), which includes strict adherence to Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Good Handling Practices (GHP). You can be assured that our produce is both safe and healthy for you and your loved ones.

TRANSPARENCY

We believe that by being completely transparent about all of our operations, our customers can be confident in our products.

SUSTAINABILITY

When owner Fred Lau first opened Mari’s Gardens in 2007, he had one thing on his mind, “to provide locally grown produce to the people of Hawaii while having the least amount of impact on the Aina”. After many months of research, aquaponics and hydroponics were the chosen methods of farming due to its reduction of food miles, low water usage, and its many other environmental benefits.
