Kona Coffee Living History Farm celebrates Girl’s Day

Hinamatsuri or Girl’s Day on March 3 is an honored holiday in Japan and Hawaii when a girl’s dolls are put on display.

Kona Coffee Living History Farm, an outdoor museum in Captain Cook, offers information about this tradition and the Japanese coffee pioneer’s story during the 1920s to 1940s in Hawaii. Visitors will have the opportunity to make their own paper dolls and be able to sample traditional Girl’s Day foods, such as hina-arare and hishimochi.

The farm is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. Info: 323-3222, konahistorical.org.
