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 amazing!!!! They had the best chocolate and macadamia nuts around and I definitely recommend coming here! They gave us a lot of free samples and it was awesome! They also had great coffee and everyone is very nice! I bought some chocolate macadamia nuts, a slushy, and they had a great art show so I also got a picture and a few other things. 🙂

  • Meeting Steven is half the reason to go to Paradise Meadows. We went back twice just to talk to him! And buy more honey because I ate all mine within 3 days... I'm a bee keeper and I'll admit, this was the best honey I've ever had. I even got little shampoo bottles to put them in so I could take it on the flight home but the best part is, they ship all over the states! I'm glad to know that I'll be able to get my fix of Hawaiian honey, macadamia nuts, and coffee grounds from home. Side note, the macadamia nuts quite literally saved my life from a severe low blood sugar episode. This place is a MUST visit.

  • We are so extatic that we made the stop. Great experience, very welcoming. Jules took great care of us. She explained all the details about all the yummy samples we tried. Let's start by saying, "I'm not a macadamia nut fan, never have been. I am now a true fan. They do something different with theirs, and it's delicious. We also tried the local honey samples, chocolate covered crushed coffee beans & shortbread. Again, you will not be disappointed.

  • Very interesting place. We got to see you a few different species of parrots! We also were taste testing honey and chocolate! They also have some pricey art from local people
