Keala Farm is a 24-acre property located on the northeast shore of Kauai. Established in 2019, we are an off-grid farm that embraces organic growing principles and has been cultivating tropical fruit and fruit trees for sale to our North Shore community. The farm is owned by Steve and Carol Orr (right), and this land has been in their family for 3+ generations. The land that is known today as Keala Farm was a gift directly from King Kamehameha III and Queen Kaahumanu to Mary Lucas’s family. The Lucas family is an old kama’aina family whose ancestors arrived in Hawai’i in the early 1800s from Scotland and became one of the first and closest advisors to Kamehameha III.

At Keala we take a sustainable, regenerative, and holistic approach to farm and land management by creating a diverse tropical fruit forest with 800+ edible fruit trees in our orchards. We also keep bees and are constantly creating pollinator havens in our growing flower fields across the 24 acres. Our entire operation is powered by the sun via our 10kW solar array, which coupled with our private well as our water source enables us to work fully off the grid. We aim to be sustainable stewards of the land, share the beauty and bounty of Keala with our guests, and bolster the resiliency of our local island food network.

Mahalo nui loa for your interest and we hope to hear from you soon!
