A produce distribution event takes place today, Wednesday, July 22, 2020, to provide produce for families impacted by COVID-19 on Lānaʻi.

Produce distribution for the general public will take place from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., or until supplies run out, in the County parking lotlocated between the County gym and school cafeteria.

Bags will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. To maximize social distancing, produce distribution will be done in a grab-and-go drive-through (no walk up). Motorists will have the option of getting bags placed in their vehicle’s trunk or rear cargo area. Recipients are asked to wear face coverings.

Maui Mayor Michael Victorino thanked Councilmember Riki Hokama, the Lānaʻi District Office of the Maui County Council, the Department of Parks and Recreation and Police Department for their assistance with the produce distribution event.
