Welcome

Welcome to Paradise Meadows Orchard & Bee Farm, home of Hawaii's Local Buzz brand of award-winning 100% Hawaiian Ka'u Coffee, fabulous 100% Hawaiian Macadamia Nuts, 100% Hawaiian Honey, Tropical Shortbread cookies, and a variety of Chocolate Covered treats including Chocolate Covered Macadamia Nuts and Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans. Paradise Meadows was recently named the Best Chocolate Shop in the entire state of Hawaii by Yelp! Come on by and taste for yourself.
Paradise Meadows occupies 75 idyllic acres in the South Point (aka Ka Lae) area of the Big Island of Hawaii. South Point itself is the southern-most part of the United States, and is located just 12 miles south of our farm on South Point Road. We grow a wide variety of crops including more than 60 acres of the best coffee you've ever tasted. We also, as our name would suggest, have beehives, and you can sample the variety of honeys that they produce year-round.

We have a farm stand that is open 7 days a week from 9 AM - 5:30 PM where you can get free samples of all of our delicious products and enjoy a brief self-guided tour of the farm. If you're planning to visit the Big Island of Hawaii and are looking for something a little different to do, please pay us a visit. Our visitors often tell us that a visit to our farm was one of the highlights of their vacation in Hawaii. When you come down South Point Rd. just look for the red tractor!

If you visit the farm you almost certainly will be greeted by our 4 parrots (3 of whom are rescued or re-homed birds). You'll see an aquaponics greenhouse -- a truly sustainable ecosystem -- where we grow lots of leafy greens and where we give our other fruiting plants (like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.) a great start in life before we transplant them into organically fertilized soil. And you'll undoubtedly see our flock of free-range Muscovy ducks that are almost too cute to be believed.
You may see some of the other "critters" who share our lives, including Penny the formerly feral pet pig, our horse, Kai, who roams free on the farm, and our miniature goat Matilda. And you may be able to pet our 15 year old greeter kitty Pico if he's not enjoying one of his many naps.
Paradise Meadows is also home to our resident artist Megan Collins. You can see her work by visiting her website, and if you visit the farm, be sure to visit the art gallery where you can see the originals covering the walls of our farmhouse.
So -- welcome to Paradise Meadows. Make yourself at home. Feel free to browse around. And if you're ever on the Big Island of Hawaii, come down & visit us. We'd love to show you around.

People were not joking with this five star reviews, this is definitely a must stop on your way to the green sand beach or if you are in the area,... read more Shannon helped us in their shop and oh boy did she treat us with so many goodies! I went planning on getting coffee and cookies and walked out with bags of assorted cookies and chocolate bark. We will be back for the tour and the food at amas maybe later today since we had an appointment to get to but didn't want to forget to leave a review

This place is by far the best Macadamia farm we went to and we visited a few of the big ones. The product is great as well as it feeling a lot more like a family owned place. I highly recommend visiting here on your way to South Point and Papakolea. If you are doing the road trip from Kailua to Hilo (or the other way around) this is a must do, and if not, you should go anyways, it is worth it!

We were treated with such kindness from the second we arrived. All the snacks and coffee here are so delicious, it was hard to decide what to bring back home! The self guided tour through the grounds was also so much fun. We enjoyed seeing all the different plants and saying hi to the ducks. 😊

This was by far the most amazing place on the island! They offered free samples of their macadamia nuts, chocolates and cookies! Then we ate at the food truck! Amazing tacos! If that’s not enough they have a local artist that is amazing ❤️. So we bought a little bit of everything 🥰 Thank you for making this experience so much fun!! YOU MUST VISIT!!

Came across this farm using the Shaka Self guided tour of the South Island.
This was such a pleasant stop to stretch out legs and even grab... read more snacks (great before or after Greensand Beach)! Breezy, beautiful grounds and staff provided education on products grown on their farm and sold at the store. Delicious choices of macadamia products (theirs are dehydrated not dry roasted), honey, shortbread and even tropical flavored slushies. They offer ample free sampling of their products, slushies included. Lots of parking and picnic table to enjoy snacks.
