KONA,BIG ISLAND

The popularity of Hawaiian coffee mainly comes from this producing area, which is different from other producing areas in Hawaii, where coffee cultivation is more diversified. There are more than 630 coffee plantations producing coffee, mostly covering an area of less than 2 hectares. It is usually run by different families.

The legacy of the Greenwell family Nicholas Greenwell Farm began in 1850 when Henry Nicholas Greenwell left England and set foot on the fertile soil of the village of Kona for the first time.

Henry spent the next four decades with his wife Elizabeth Caroline, growing, raising and refining Kona coffee and quickly exporting it to Europe and America. In 1873, the chairman of the Caesar Fair issued an "accredited Diploma" to Kona Coffee in Greenwell at the World Exposition in Vienna, Austria.

Modern coffee age

Tom Greenwell today, Greenwell Farm is located in the heart of the Kona coffee growing area, adjacent to the ancestral houses of Henry and Elizabeth, and is now occupied by the Kona Historical Society and the museum.

Managed by the descendants of Henry and Elizabeth, Greenwell Farm has developed into a multifaceted agribusiness:

The agricultural operation is located in the same farmland planted by the Greenwell family in the 19th century. Today, Greenwell Farm adopts modern agricultural practices to ensure consistent supply and the highest quality.

In addition to agriculture, the company also buys coffee fruits (just harvested) from more than 300 farmers in the northern and southern Kona region. We operate our own pulping and drying equipment, dry mills and mung bean grading and storage facilities.

There is a roaster on the farm that can roast and pack Greenwell Farm coffee. The company delivers mung beans to the gourmet coffee industry around the world and has been the preferred source of Kona coffee for many years.

In Kona, the company provides custom milling, baking and packaging for the Kona coffee industry on the big island.

Our farm tour has become a very popular tourist attraction along the Mamalahoa Highway.

From planting, processing and baking to the last cup, Kona Coffee's superior quality can be traced back to the high standards of 1850 years ago.
