About Us
Aloha!
Pine Village Small Farm is located in Holualoa, which is part of the world famous Kona Coffee Belt on the Big Island, Hawai'i.
My name is Yukio Muramatsu. I moved to Big Island in 2009, and with the help of ohana, friends, and veteran coffee farmers, I started the coffee farm with natural fertilizers. We began avoiding chemical pesticides in December 2013.
The small town of Holualoa used to be a place where many Japanese immigrants grew coffee, so it is a town with a rich history where many people have a connection with Japan. I'm really happy to have started the farm here.
The farm is just less than 8 acres. It's small for a coffee plantation, but it still requires a small number of people to take maintain.
Coffee Tree - February
Arabica Tipica coffee trees grow toward the harvest season.
Coffee Tree - June
Every year, the harvest period stretches from July to December, so we miss the Hawaiian ocean activities during this time.
Coffee Tree - November
Cacao Trees
We have about 200 cacao trees, which keep us busy year-round.
Banana Trees
And in the banana forest, there are always too many bananas to eat overhead.
We will continue to do our best to create a farm that is comfortable for nature, humans, animals, and insects. Please come visit us to check out our farm.
