MARKETS
Lanai Marketplace Everyone on Lanai, it seems, is a backyard farmer. From
7 to 11am on Saturday, they all head to this shady square to sell their dewy-fresh
produce, home-baked breads, plate lunches, and handicrafts. This is Lanai's ver-
sion of the farmers' market: petite in scale (like the island) but charming, and
growing. Dole Sq.
