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.

This is a must-see stop on the way to South Point. Admission is free, and you can wander the grounds filled with lush plants, birds, and an art gallery. Grab... read more a bite from the food truck or enjoy the samples in the store. The macadamia nuts are absolutely addictive, and the thoughtfully crafted honey is just as incredible.
We left a generous tip for our sample guru and went home with bags of macadamia nuts and a variety of honey. Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable, and I loved learning how the honey develops its unique flavors. Best of all, it feels great to support local farmers!

Cute farm with fun animals and yummy samples! We walked around (free self guided tour) and saw lovely gardens with banana and citrus trees, a variety of free roaming ducks... read more and chickens, and then visited the open air gift shop where we were treated to plenty of yummy macadamia nut and cookie samples.

I first came across Ka'u local buzz coffee and Paradise Meadows a couple of years ago and decided that this was the best coffee I've ever had. Same... read more for the Mac Nuts. I immediately subscribed to their newsletter so I could keep up to speed on what they where offering.
In a recent trip to Hawaii, we were finally able to visit in person and it was a fun experience. Enthusiastic staff, lots of laughter, delicious fruit slushies, Art Gallery with featured local artists, penny the pig, baby ducks, parrots that would squawk at you until you engaged in conversation.
Premium Kau Coffee, Macnuts, chocolate, short bread, slushies, pizza (on the day we were there)
made by two Italian guys. Yes please!
After we gorged on free samples and margarita pizza, we went on a shopping spree at the well stocked gift shop (not sure if that's the correct term, maybe farmstand?). Since we spent a certain amount on goodies, a discount was given along with free shipping to Alaska (what?!?).
It makes me so happy just knowing that places like this exist.
My only regret about stopping is that because we were in go, go, go mode to get to a birthday party, we didn't spend nearly enough time here as I would've liked. Next time!

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!!

What a MAGICAL experience tasting delicious macadamia nuts, coffee, chocolates & honey in a lovely setting, with such a welcoming host! Truly a slice of paradise 🙂 Perfect stop to try the tastings, explore the farm & cute herb trail with their helpful map, and use the restroom. We left very happy, having purchased yummy gifts for our friends (and snacks for ourselves too 🙂

A truly delightful mix of flora and fauna of the Big Island. Megan's art is a wonderful way to take memories of the Island home with you. No better place to get a taste of good coffee, the best macnuts on the island, scrumptious cookies, and tasty local honey. Such a peaceful place and friendliest most helpful staff you could ask for.

Stopped for the food truck (which was delicious) and was surprised to discover the market and the free guided tastings of their macadamian nuts, cookies, honey and coffee. Just a little off the main road and definitely worth the visit. Everything was fresh, delicious and seemed reasonably priced. It's also great to directly support their farm.

Delicious STOP! - We have stopped on the way to the Southern-most-point of the island and had a blast - you get to try some coffee, delicious honey (took 3 with us!) and... read more some amazing macadamia nuts (got plenty with us!) - all of this is free to try and you can walk around and check out some of the trees/plants/animals. It's a very pleasant stop!
They do their nuts differently by dehydrating them - they have more crunch than usual nuts and flavor is a bit different - I absolutely loved them and preferred them over any other nuts on the island, my wife did not care for the flavor so it's a unique experience.
What I can emphasize though is that the Sweet and Smokey flavor is to die for!!! I got 2 packs of it and I am actually tempted to order it again but this time online - definitely a must stop while in the area!
They prefer CASH but do accept CREDIT CARDS

Nice stop just off hwy 11 - We enjoyed our stop here after visiting the green sand beach. We sampled and then bought macadamia nuts and coffee, and had tasty tacos from the food truck. ... read more We wandered the grounds a bit, we were there about an hour. Pleasant stop!

Come for Coffee samples -- stay for lunch!! Nice low-key ambience near Green Sands Beach - We were drawn to this place by the offer of free samples of macadamia nuts and coffee and ended up staying for lunch at Ama's food truck. Great... read more fresh tasting food harvested locally (the cook husband catches the fish) , had the fish tacos and split a fish burrito. Very filling, homemade meal. Did the tour and saw the local animals (Including Penny the pig) then came back from samples and bought some bags of nuts to take home. They even have a shower to rinse off the sand after the beach (we stopped on way back from Green Sands Beach)
There is a low-key friendly (not fancy) ambience and the staff are nice. A hidden treasure just a mile off the Hawaiian Belt Road (#11)
