grow. learn. build.
Sacred Orchard Ranch & Farm is located in the Puna district on the East side of the Big Island of Hawaii. We ranch cattle and host travelers in our glamping yurts. Our farm is getting started supporting a wide array of food producing trees. We hope to work towards clearing and maintaining the 2 acres of old guava orchard on our land soon.

The land holds secrets, and whispers the dream of possibilities.
Dare to dream and walk upon the sacred ground.

Sacred Orchard Ranch & Farm is a sanctuary dedicated to sustainable agriculture and community enrichment on the Big Island of Hawaii. Our mission is to cultivate the land responsibly, foster a deep connection to nature, and share the bounty of our efforts with the local community.
Our Vision
At Sacred Orchard, we believe that the land holds secrets and whispers the dream of possibilities. We invite you to dare to dream, walk upon this sacred ground, and heed the calling to connect deeply with Mother Earth.
Current Farming Operations and Projects
Cattle: Embracing Hawaii's rich ranching heritage, we raise cattle using humane and sustainable practices. Our livestock graze freely on open pastures, contributing to soil health and biodiversity.
Orchards: Our diverse orchards produce an array of tropical fruits, including guava, avocados, breadfruit (ulu) and citrus, all grown without the use of harmful chemicals.
Nursery: Our on-site nursery propagates native plants and heirloom varieties, supporting reforestation efforts and offering unique plants to the community.
Embracing Hawaii's Ranching Heritage
Cattle ranching has deep roots in Hawaii, dating back to 1793 when Captain George Vancouver gifted King Kamehameha with the first cattle. This legacy has shaped the islands' landscapes and culture. At Sacred Orchard, we honor this tradition by practicing responsible ranching that supports local food systems and preserves open spaces. Our methods are inspired by the time-honored practices of Hawaii's paniolo (cowboys), contributing to the state's agricultural diversity and sustainability.
Growing Food Sustainably
Our commitment to sustainability extends to all aspects of food production. By employing organic farming methods, conserving water, and enhancing soil fertility through natural amendments, we ensure that our produce is both nutritious and environmentally friendly.
