About

Kona Coffee Living History Farm. Patrons and students are inspired by the lives of pioneer coffee farmers. Costumed interpreters demonstrate Japanese cooking using traditional implements and a wood-burning stove, and demonstrate how coffee is picked and processed, while explaining the role of the donkey in coffee farming. Visitors leave the site with an appreciation of the critical role of children in the success of the coffee farm, and the contrast between their own modern life and the family of 1920's Kona Mauka. Japanese American and local immigrant culture, in particular, is emphasized in program performances and cultural craft fair activities.
