WARD CENTER AND LUNDBERG FAMILY FARMS PRESENT THE 5TH ANNUAL RICE FEST
Celebrate Hawaii’s most cherished grain at the 5th Annual Hawaii Rice Festival on Sunday, September 28, 2014 from 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. at Ward Centers. Attendees can sample favorite rice dishes and concoctions prepared by local vendors, enjoy local entertainment, and even participate in a spam musubi eating contest.
The day-long festival will be held along Auahi Street, between Ward Warehouse and Marukai. A full day of activities will include professional chef cooking demonstrations, live entertainment and performances, and a Rice-ipe Cooking Contest to celebrate variations of rice — a cultural food staple.
As with tradition, the 5th Annual Rice Festival will graciously accept brown rice donations that will be given to Lanakila Meals on Wheels, the only island-wide meal provider for seniors.
Sponsors of the 2014 Rice Festival include Ward Centers and Lundberg Family Farms.
