The Difference of a Living, Working Farm
Unlike larger commercial tours, this intimate small-group experience is conversational, unscripted, and rooted in genuine local hospitality. With tours capped at just 10 guests, visitors have the opportunity to ask questions, talk story, and build a more meaningful connection with the real people, history, and traditions behind Kona coffee — while enjoying sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean and exploring the farm’s diverse tropical crops, including the rare and culturally significant Wī tree.
Because this is an active working farm rather than a staged attraction, guests may also witness workers actively processing coffee during harvest season, from carefully raking beans across the Hoshidana drying deck to monitoring the sun drying process that helps shape the final character of the coffee. Combined with the aroma of coffee roasting over fire and the opportunity to sample freshly roasted Kona coffee, the experience offers a rare glimpse into the living craft behind authentic Kona coffee.
