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.

  • Really fun place to check out! They have animals, art, shortbread, chocolate, coffee, ... The shortbread and chocolate covered macadamia nuts were the best I've ever had! The people running the place are really nice and serve generous tastings. This is a must stop on the route from Kona to Volcano!

  • A great gift shop nestled in a beautiful park- like area with plenty of parking. Parrots for viewing, and gardens to stroll.

  • 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!

  • Amazing place! Free to enter, and cute gift shop, and a food truck! Didn’t get to see Penny (the pig), but saw many other amazing animals! There are restrooms available!
