Shopping at the swap meet

Priscilla Aki said they look for notices of events like the swap meet and check into whether or not they want to participate.

“We don’t have product in any of the stores,” Aki said. “We only do the swap meets and craft fairs, so when we see the notice, we check out the details to see if it’s something which will work.”

Aki was one of several dozen vendors who took advantage of the Grove Farm swap meet at Puhi Park from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.

“It was pretty busy, early in the morning,” said Aki.

Marissa Sandblom, the Grove Farm Co. vice president, said they host two community swap meets each year. The next meet will be held on Nov. 8 at Puhi Park. 

Vendors interested in participating can call 245-3678 for more information.
