The Mukai Farm & Garden is proud to be the site of Covid-19 testing on the Island. Our spacious, isolated, but easily accessible grounds are suitable for this important activity. Safety and the need for confidentiality mandate that only specially trained people, and islanders with an appointment, be allowed on the property during periods of testing.
Therefore, the Mukai Farm & Garden will be closed Monday through Friday from 9:00am-4:00pm.
The grounds will be fully accessible during evenings and all day Saturday and Sunday. We will let you know when the site reopens full time.
We appreciate your understanding as Mukai achieves yet another significant milestone in its long history of community involvement. Please use the weekends and evenings to stroll the grounds while socially distancing, and observe the cherry trees evolving into full bloom!
And if you haven't had a chance to, submit your haiku entry to our Haiku Festival and Contest for fun prizes in different categories:
