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 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 50 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 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 growing 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, our sheep Shirley and miniature goat (Matilda). And you may be able to pet our 14 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.

Possibly one of my favorite stops ever. The man running the shop was so helpful and let us taste everything. The macadamia nuts are the best we've ever had.... read more
And we got to meet the owner, scott, and see the baby ducks and walk the farm.
Just an amazing, off the beaten track stop that we will remember forever!!Cynthia C.

This farm and little store is really great!!! While visiting the big island with friends, we stopped by and I was surprised about how many choices of different fruits and... read more veggies they have.
Everything were so fresh and staff was really friendly as well. My friend and I got quite a few fruits to try and they were so good. Please you got to try the bananas! They are the same kind we have in Brasil and I cannot find it anywhere on the USA.
I suggest you bringing your own bag/box to carry the things you buy because they don't have any. I was lucky enough they gave me an old box but it is not guaranteed.
Next time I come to visit the big Island I will definitely stop by here again to get some delicious tropical fruits.Elaine K.

Leonard was so chill to talk to, not to mention his Aloha spirit and the warm friendliness he exuded. We really enjoyed the laid back nature of this place, and... read more the amazing variety of all sorts of different plants and animals. We highly recommend visiting Paradise Meadows and the self-guided tour! You will beeeee so happy you did!

Lovely small farm with free tasting and tours. Very low key and informative. The guides were around to answer questions and show us around the beautiful herb garden. Lots of banana trees, coffee trees and avocado trees. And they use aquaponics and you can learn all about the benefits of that kind of farming!

Cool little farm with a self guided tour of the grounds. Beware of the nuts and cookie samplings given by the staff...they give you big proportions and and i wason chocolate overload!! But so good and i bought plenty of bags to take home. I recommend stopping at this place if you are on your way to green sands beach.

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. 😊

Was very pretty and Very friendly. Free sample.. The route is short and sweet. But the natural beauty makes up for it. A lot of natural fruits and vegetables to see only not to taste. Lol

The farm is VERY small and when you pull up their is just a few parking spots and a little stand selling coffee/chocolate/nuts and honey. But they have samples of... read more EVERYTHING and I was sad we just came from lunch and I didn't have room to taste more. We ended up buying a lot of chocolate as gifts for other people! The coffee was also quite good! The ground themselves were unique covered in different fruit and flower trees. They had a ton of different type of avocado trees which was cool - the owner even gave us a free avocado to try because we had gotten into a conversation about the lack of diversity in avocado types sold on the mainland US.
There were Muscovy Ducks everywhere and they looked very healthy. There were also a few species of parrots in fairly large cages that seemed very well taken care of. They let you walk the whole grounds and explore which was a fun and unique. They also had a restroom ( which I believe was in their personal home that they allowed people to use!) They also sold art that I think the owners husband makes - their was a studio that they allowed people to explore. Overall a great open experience with tasty treats!

A little off the beaten path but worth the detour. Turn down the ironwood tree lined driveway and park near the tasting tent. Coffee, mac nuts and honey. Lots of... read more flavors and sizes, and they offer free shipping on orders over $100. We liked the small tour of the property, trees and animals. The parrot greeting us with good morning really caught us by surprise.
The shortbread cookies were great.

This is a must-do while on the big island. The honey, chocolate, and macadamia nut options and tastings are all worth the visit alone but then follow that up... read more with a short tour of the grounds including the aquaculture tank and a visit into the house where the you'll find some very nice artwork by Megan. And bring a good camera to take pictures of the parrots! Overall a great experience. Highly recommended. Racine was great! She handled all 6 of us and then more people as they kept coming with grace and is a great salesperson :).

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... read more (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!

This is a local orchard and bee farm which also raises ducks, tilapia fish....
I found the stuff friendly, willing to have you try EVERY single product they... read more make (and try again)... Not cheap, but it was nice to taste different things.
Highly recommended.
