Hawaiʻi Agriculture at a Glance
Hawaiʻi’s farms shape daily life across the islands. From iconic export crops to roadside fruit stands, each island grows foods that supply neighbors – and the world – while giving visitors a fresh, local taste of the islands.
Pineapples
Synonymous with Hawaiʻi, pineapples are still grown statewide, though production is smaller than in the past. At Oʻahu’s famed Dole Plantation, you can see fields up close and learn about different varieties.
Coffee
Hawaiʻi is the only U.S. state that grows coffee. Volcanic soils and microclimates create distinctive beans—try 100% Kona and tour a farm near Kailua-Kona to bring home a couple of bags.
Fruits & Vegetables
Sweet, juicy produce is everywhere—grocery stores, farmers markets, and roadside stands. Look for:
- Avocado, mango, papaya, banana
- Seasonal citrus and lychee
- Ice-cold coconut water cracked on the spot
Macadamia Nuts
A classic take-home treat you’ll find island-wide. For an extra indulgence, grab chocolate-covered mac nuts—great gifts (if you don’t eat them first).
Eat Local
Many restaurants proudly source from local farms, letting the islands’ diverse crops shine. Sampling island-grown ingredients is one of the tastiest ways to experience Hawaiʻi.
