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! We are open for visitors 7 days/week from 9:00 AM until 5:00 PM. 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 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.
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.

On our way back from the furthest southern point in the United States (on the Big Island), we stopped at Paradise Meadows for some Macadamia nuts. We found the staff... read more were more than willing to offer samples. We walked out with 4 different varieties of Macadamia nuts. All delicious. The owners farm most of their properties with coffee & Macadamia nuts.. We sampled their coffee, and it was SO good, we took some back for tomorrow morning's breakfast.

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!

It was paradise here. We just drove by and happened to see a sign so we stopped by. And I glad we did because we got to sample so many... read more chocolates and nuts. Ended up with a sugar smrush because of it. We also got to sample the smoothie before we bought it. Everyone was so friendly!
Onsite was a pizza spot and tables to sit at. There were animals to view too as you wait for the pizza to be cooked.
Ended the experience with $6 small bags of chocolate and $7 smoothie. Would come back to.

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.

We always make a point of stopping by here and picking up a few goodies to take back home when we come to Hawaii. The staff are all very friendly and they give out samples of all their delicious Mac nuts, chocolates, and coffee. The art work they sell here is so beautiful as well. Such a fun place to visit with the kids. A hui hou.

We absolutely LOVED our time at Paradise Meadows! The staff was so knowledgeable and interesting! I had no idea the owner was a Cordon Bleu trained chef! No wonder everything was so delicious! They were so generous with the samples - helping us find just the right treats and shipping them home for us! We loved wandering around this little farm, learning all about the different processes and asking questions. We will definitely be re-ordering our favorites! #letsguide

Julie was fantastic!! When we arrived they pointed us towards coffee samples and then followed that up with macadamia nuts, chocolate, and cookies! Everything was delicious and were heading home with some goodies. There was a food truck on site that smelled great but we had just eaten. Really cool place to stop!

Very good - We just happened to drive by and see the sign for free macadamia nut tasting. We were allowed to sample quite a few flavors. This farm uses the... read more dehydration method instead of the roasting method and their macadamia nuts are delicious. They will also ship for free with a $150 purchase.

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
