After one month and eight days at our second farm, we have just arrived at our third Kona coffee farm!
We are now at Kona Earth, which has been a favorite of ours since we toured it a few months ago. Located in the heart of the Kona coffee belt, Kona Earth is a beautiful family owned and operated farm. There are 3,500 coffee trees, a Macadamia nut orchard, a cute little dog, three rabbits, lots of chickens (fresh eggs!), and plenty of fruits and vegetables for the picking. We’re really excited to be here…and to drink their amazing coffee every day!
Our new living quarters include a sunny, studio apartment, with a kitchen, bathroom, closet, and, drum roll please…a queen size bed! We slept comfortably (by regular people standards), woke up to the sun shining and a blooming avocado tree right outside the window. It’s almost too good to be true.
Moving around definitely recharges us, keeps us on our toes and because coffee farming is not ‘one size fits all’, there is always something new to learn. Each and every farmer has their unique way of running their farm and they have different insights on techniques and processes to offer us.
Aloha to a fresh start and to a fresh supply of our favorite Kona coffee!
