Breadfruit Festival 2012 Directions and Parking
Directions to the festival location
The festival will take place at Amy B.H. Greenwell Ethnobotanical Garden near mile marker 110 in Captain Cook, South Kona.
Parking
- Along Mamalahoa Highway in places where the police officers who will be directing festival traffic feel that it is safe.
- In the grass field behind the new visitor center. The grass field is accessed by pulling between the baseball diamond and the new visitor center.
- At the Kealakekua Ranch Center lower parking lot (past the garden about 1/3 mile, mauka side). A shuttle (courtesy of Hawaii Forest and Trail) will run every 15 minutes beginning at 8:30 am.
Handicapped parking
There are two options for handicapped parking (with disabled parking placard only, please). The first option is to pull into the new parking lot below the new visitor center, across from Manago Hotel and just north of the baseball diamond. The second is to pull in at the old entrance to the Amy B.H. Greenwell Ethnobotanical Garden, just south of mile marker 110 and mauka of the King Kamehameha sign. Come to the top of the driveway.
Cooking contest entrants
Cooking Contest entrants may either hand-carry their dish to the cooking contest tent or drive in at the entrance to the Amy B.H. Greenwell Ethnobotanical Garden, just south of mile marker 110 and mauka of the King Kamehameha sign. A parking attendant will ask you to show your contest entry. You may drive in to drop off your dish, but parking will not be available due to very limited space and you will have to park your car elsewhere after dropping off your dish.
