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, our sheep Shirley and 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.

If you plan on driving all the way down to South Point or Green sand beach on Hawaii Island, you might as well make the stop to Paradise Meadows farm... read more for local coffee, honey and chocolate!
They have their own farm where they grow all of their own produce and also make and package their products. Everyone that works there is super friendly and are happy to let you sample all of their products. You are allowed to roam the grounds and do a self-guided tour of their little farm. They even have a few parrots on the property that you can say hello to!
Their products are quite popular and are sold in the local grocery store Foodland on all of the islands, but it is so much more fun to buy directly from the farm and from the people who put their heart and soul into their business 🙂Crystal N.

What a wonderful place!
Free delicious samples of mac nuts, chocolate, cookies, coffee, and honey. For a non-coffee drinker like myself, I was offered a sample of their tropical slushie which... read more I ended up buying because it was delicious and refreshing! We also bought mac nuts and cookies. I like that you can get single cookies that are individually wrapped with their brand name as they make perfect little treats for friends or souvenirs if you're from out of town!
All this plus super nice staff and a free self-guided tour around the farm where you'll encounter a pig (it may ask for a belly rub if you're lucky), ducks, banana trees, etc.
Free and plentiful parking

We were pulled in by the signs and were very happy that we stopped. Lots of samples to try out. The macadamias are dehydrated not roasted making them super crunchy. The flavored nuts were not over done...just right! Great place to stop after going to green sands beach!

Had so much fun visiting the farm. We popped in because it came up when we searched for chocolate, but it offers so much more! There are over two dozen (maybe 3 dozen?) samples - more than Costco! Everything is delicious, you'll kick yourself for not buying more! Shortbread cookies, mac nuts, chocolate, coffee, honey, and art! Plus they have a really friendly pig Penny, parrots, and lots of other cool wildlife - most adopted. They roast their coffee on site, and their owner Lilly is very warm and welcoming, as are the great staff! We got to chat with her as they were closing about the history of the farm, roasting, the animals, and more! Highly recommend!

This is a must see stop if you are looking for the BEST macadamia (mac) nuts on the big island! Great selection of coffees, cookies, and honey from the farm. Ask for for a mac nut and honey tasting... its free and helps you decide which items you want to purchase. Super helpful and friendly staff. An added bonus is the owner is an amazing artist and prints of her paintings are available for sale at an extremely low price... we bought four and she even signed them. A must stop, you will not be disappointed. Highly recommend!

Plan accordingly for a 75 minutes one way hike. Or take the shuttle offered by locals. Don't go after 2 PM if planning a hike

We did not find it to be an interesting stop, with some free samples and expensive nuts and coffee. A quick walk through the shop and neighboring grounds took... read more about 30 minutes. Just not exciting or interesting enough to recommend other than average.

This place is great! While we were looking up and trying to research the cliff jumping at South Point (Ka Lae) a reviewer mentioned something about this farm. I noted... read more it and went on researching the cliffs. On our way to the cliffs a few days later my husband said something about stopping at this farm again and that I had sounded very interested in it. So I tried to find it, but couldn’t! I could no longer find the review on it. I was so upset. But once we got closer to the road the needed to turn on to get to the cliffs we started seeing signs for this farm! My heart soared.
We turned in and I immediately fell in love with the place. It was so open, airy and inviting. We walked up and were met by a wonderful gal named Racine. She knew EVERYTHING about the farm. She introduced us to their honey’s, letting us sample all of them and giving brief descriptions on each. Honey tasting was followed by coffee tasting which was where I fell even MORE in love with this place. I was informed that due to the elevation and the soil that they use (as opposed to the lava rocks that Kona uses) they get a much smoother cup of coffee. Which, as the heavy cold brew drinker that I am, was like music to my ears. I’m not a acidic coffee lover. Kona coffee was killing me due to the harsh bite it had. But this coffee was fabulous! Even the hot coffee was smooth! I died.
We them moved on to macadamia nut tasting. They have SO MANY flavors here! And are not stingy with the tastings at all! The cinnamon one was amazing! We got a small one and ate it on the way home later that day haha. I love that they dehydrate their nuts instead of roasting them. It’s a much creamier nut!
They even have chocolate covered Mac nuts here! Omg and the most delicious shortbread cookies!
Along with all the amazing tastings Racine was awesome with explaining everything about the farm and the food processing. She was so patient with us and our questions and she had the shots delightful smile the whole time! You could tell she really loved her job. And omg who wouldn’t?! The food here seriously speaks for itself!
We bought a ton of stuff! We were going to do a tour around the farm (I’d highly recommend calling first to set up an appointment) but we were on a strict time limit as it was our last day and we were trying to hit up all of our last minute spots on the island.
I’m home now and have basically eaten everything we bought already. Ha! And I already went on their website and bought more. I’m letting all of my coworkers try everything!
Can’t wait to come back here next time we hit up the Big Island and really sit and enjoy this place. HIGHLY recommended!

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!
