Breadfruit’s rediscovery here in Hawaii could not have come at a better time. Because of all its attributes, it has an amazing potential to address our food security and sustainability issues. We desperately need to take back our food sovereignty. Developing localized food supply chains is an essential part of this process. Thankfully, the humble breadfruit has been waiting all along for us to finally realize that what’s new is really old.
