I can't believe this absolute HIDDEN gem has no reviews! Been here for 5 years strong in Kekaha. A cute local family runs the farm around the area and is generous enough to open a stand for the locals, though most of the produce goes straight to market.
I have legitimately NEVER tasted fresher papaya than here. The fruit comes straight from the tree and sometimes you can even catch the owner picking papayas and mangos off the trees by the stand lol. The papayas don't taste like the mushy stuff you find at regular supermarkets because the texture is a lot firmer and the flavor is distinctive and unique. For you travelers out there, this is where you find REAL Hawaiian papaya, not to mention passion fruit, pineapples, mangoes, etc.
You get to try samples so you can see what I'm talking about. This place is an absolute MUST TRY if you're coming/going from Waimea Canyon. You get to try the fruit the locals grow and eat only in Hawaii.
By the way, you can also get coconuts chopped open on the spot to drink! There's also a cute cat to greet you. read more
