Abstract (150 Words)

This study is part of a larger objective to produce data to develop an appropriate marketing campaign for ecologically sustainable and cultural food production for consumption through data analysis on key audience, industry leaders, and Hawaii's food production.

This paper covers a smaller (n=100) study as a mode for survey of locals willingness to pay for "ecologically sustainable and cultural food production and consumption". Through our findings we establish a statistically significant willingness to pay more for consumption of food grown through ecologically sustainable and cultural food production in Hawaii.
