About
Seeking a new challenge during the pandemic, Steve and Joanie Wynn established Kona Earth in 2021, a family farm high on the volcanic slopes of Hualalai, dedicated to cultivating genuine 100% Kona coffee. With a passion for quality, they nurture the prized Kona Typica varietal in this unique high-elevation microclimate, ensuring beans are hand-picked at peak ripeness. A hallmark of their approach is the on-site, micro-batch roasting, allowing them to ship exceptionally fresh coffee directly from their Kona estate. Beyond their sought-after Peaberry, Premium, and Classic Kona roasts, Kona Earth embodies a "Grown with Aloha" philosophy. This is reflected in their commitment to sustainable farming methods, fair wages for their workers, and the impactful "Care In Every Cup" program, which supports The Kohala Center's local conservation and community agricultural initiatives. For those wishing to connect deeply with their coffee's origin, Kona Earth offers private farm tours, providing a glimpse into the meticulous journey of authentic, locally grown Hawaiian coffee.
