Grown Here. Not Flown Here.

Fresh. Local. Raw.

Makana, which means gift, roots true to this land and our story. We are not your average farm, nor do we want to be. Our collaboration of families came to Hilo with the heart to feed the people and share in health.

With a vision set, we made the leap to put down roots on the hillsides of Hilo and began making quality compost, Mac-nut bio char, and mulch galore in order to begin planting heirloom seeds. When we hear the outrageous numbers of 85 percent or more food for Hawaii is imported, we know in our hearts that we are here to help change that. Our speciality is fresh, organically-grown, healthy produce. We steer clear of modern farming techniques to keep the soil quality nui (great, plentiful, abundant). And because we aren’t depleting the soil and damaging it’s natural state, we get to keep the produce quality nui (great, plentiful, abundant). Why take time to eat healthy if all those vegetables are truly not healthy?
