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.

  • We had such a great time at Paradise Meadows! We took a tour of the farm and got to see the crop fields, the coffee and macadamia nut processors, and (best of all) got to get up close with the bee hives! Our tour guide was very informative and friendly. When we saw the bee hives, he let us get up close while at the same time clearly explaining safety protocols. We also bought some macadamia nuts and chocolates and they were *amazing*. The cinnamon bun crunch in particular were probably the best nuts we’ve ever had! Could not recommend more!

  • Great little place. It's not polished, but it's genuine and fun. We picked up a few different flavors of macadamia nuts, some honey and a couple avocados.

  • Highly recommended stop!! We were greeted the moment we parked the car and had the most amazing experience touring the farm, seeing the birds and Penny the pig as well as all the amazing samples (coffee, honey, macadamia nuts, chocolate, shortbread, frozen juice), wonderful art studio and very clean bathrooms 😉 We stumbled across the farm on the way to Hilo for our honeymoon and it was such a pleasant surprise. We also had the best tacos there and got some amazing travel advice - everyone was so friendly and welcoming, 10 out of 10 experience!! 😊
