The story

In 2013 Kate Haynes and her mom Marla MacCasland started a coffee shop called Ka Lae Coffee Flower Farm Café. For so many years this coffee shop was a place for the people of our area to gather and connect. It became an iconic part of South Point and the Ka’u region. In the Spring of 2020, Luke and Chauntelle, a small local family, also friends of Kate, her husband TJ, and the MacCasland family got offered the opportunity to continue operating Ka Lae Coffee Shop. They were able to find an amazing space in Naalehu to continue operating Ka Lae Coffee from. The Ka Lae Coffee Shop has now been able to buy and use 100% Ka’u coffee, that is grown locally on Luke and Chauntelle’s family’s coffee farm.
