The first mention of coffee in Kona was in 1840 when it was realized the crop – though planted in other locations – was best suited to the Kona district. Coffee is a labor-intense crop as everything – from planting to picking – is done by hand. Hardworking family farmers took Kona’s rich volcanic soil and, with the help of the region’s perfect climatic conditions, have turned the crop into an internationally-recognized and coveted commodity.
