Our Story

Founded in 1986, Lehuula Farms (pronounced (le'-hu-u'lă) is now the passion project of Yulian and Ana Moreno. After working with the original founders Bob and Mae Nelson and the next generation Brian and Amy Axelrod for over 12 years Yulian and Ana have decided to take a step forward and become the new owners of Lehuula Farms . The original founder of Lehuula Farms, Bob Nelson, who still resides on the property with his wife Mae enjoying the rich aroma of freshly roasted coffee in the mornings in blissful retirement. 

 

The farm itself is located on 3.8 acres in the Kona coffee belt with a stunning view of the ocean. Our 4,000 coffee trees grow under the shade of avocado and macadamia nut trees, where wild turkeys comingle with chameleons. Many of our coffee trees are over 90 years old, and like heritage grape vines, this age allows the plant to produce deeply complex and unique flavors.

 

Every coffee bean is picked, processed, and roasted by the dedicated hands of the team at Lehuula Farms. Yulian is our chief roast master while Ana manages every order to make sure you are getting the freshest bean possible.
