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.

Very welcoming! Sampling of all products demonstrated by the employees! So many good things here! A little art from local artists on display for sale, shirts and hats are very... read more nice as well. There's also Ama's kitchen on property which had the best grilled ahi burger ever! Definitely recommend a stop in here. Just a few miles past ocean view just off highway 11, headed towards south point.

Stopped by this place before going to south point. I'm not sure what I was expecting coming here, but ended up doing a self guided tour of the place. We... read more saw all the fruit trees, how people on the island recycle water, and found out where our local king duck species originated from. They offered us nuts and chocolate. We ended up purchasing a bag of their garlic Parmesan nuts. Call me nuts for some nuts, but those nuts tasted, nuts. Their mango slushy was yummy too. There is also a food truck that was serving freshly caught fish from what I'm assuming was south point. I didn't end up buying anything though. There's also a local art shop there. I understand that they make money from tourists and people value art at what they think art is worth, but I'm not in a position to purchase a $2000 oil pastel painting. Not shaming on the art or the talent, it's just not something I would ever consider. Also those parrots can outlive a human, that's pretty intense.

Super cute farm and very thorough sampling. Julie is so so nice and we really enjoyed our time talking to her. There is a free self-guided tour around the farm where you can get up close to what’s happening here. The bathrooms are very clean and there is even a shower to rinse off if you’d like. Megan’s spectacular artwork is scattered all throughout the farm and there are a variety of different options from prints to hand touched canvases. Highly recommend stopping here! If you get hungry there is a little food truck where you can grab a bite to eat. We got the fish and chips and the fish was great.

Fun and informative tour with the owner of the orchard. You'll see the orchard, coffee fields, and a lot of equipment used at different stages of coffee processing. The place is interesting to visit and you get to see a real operating coffee business, and not just a fake area for tourists to visit.

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!

What a great find! We were headed back from the beach and just needed a restroom, but this place was so perfect. They have some of the best shortbread cookies I’ve ever tasted and some really great coffee & honey. The chocolate was pretty great too. They have a self guided tour to see a small portion of their farm and their fruit trees & garden. The people were super friendly too!!

Came across this farm using the Shaka Self guided tour of the South Island.
This was such a pleasant stop to stretch out legs and even grab... read more snacks (great before or after Greensand Beach)! Breezy, beautiful grounds and staff provided education on products grown on their farm and sold at the store. Delicious choices of macadamia products (theirs are dehydrated not dry roasted), honey, shortbread and even tropical flavored slushies. They offer ample free sampling of their products, slushies included. Lots of parking and picnic table to enjoy snacks.
