I don't know if this was true in Cuba. But many people in the former soviet union states already relied on growing their own food because of shortages in stores. So basic farming knowledge, and even relying on small farmers was more common.
To what degree and how quickly a place like Hawaii would adopt I'm not sure. Many farms in Hawaii are geared to monocrop production, and are large and corporately owned.
They would first need to taken over. Also, Hawaii is a paradise. But growing common agricultural crops there is surprisingly difficult.
