We come to Kailua a couple times a year and found Greg and his team to be one of the BEST tours in Kona. Each time we come back we introduce more people to the experience, their love of the island and history make the trip worthy by itself. The coffee, chocolate and soaps speak for themselves, absolutely First Class! We get as much as we can while we are here, then order more when we run out before coming back (OMG, that soap!) Absolutely some of the nicest people you will meet, and doing their part to represent the island and its sustainability. Maholo!

This was the best tour! Greg was so informative and impressive with his wealth of knowledge of chocolate, coffee and soap!! Everything is natural and sustainable. I love the story of how he came to buy the farm and the history before he bought it. When I visit again I want to go on this tour again too! Definitely recommend!!!

We booked the chocolate & coffee tour and we got so much more. The tour and wealth ofInformation we got from Greg was outstanding. He has a true passion for the farm and all they do there. We were able to taste the coffee andChocolate, which were wonderful. We also got a tour of the soap factory and how they make it as well.This was a bonus in my book.All the staff were friendly and informative. I would highly recommend to anyone.Mahalo

From Cocoa, Natural Soap, Essential Oils, Ceramic Tea & Coffee Cups, Farming, Chickens, Tour Guide, et al ~ Greg Colden knows his “Schtuff.”I was very impressed with Greg’s knowledge of his craft. I was even more impressed & grateful to hear about how Greg’s customers were so loyal with online orders helping to keep things going during covid.We learned how the “free range” chickens were commissioned to help break down the leaves to help enrich the soil & how they eat the bugs to prevent them from killing the trees.The presentation on how Cocoa is harvested from the trees & how the seeds are dried. The remains are thrown right back on the grounds to help enrich the soil.They share the drying & prep process with another farm. There is a cherished Chocolatier who comes & produces the chocolate to make it edible. It was nice to learn the love of the process is spread between small local businesses to make it all possible.I have to admit the soap & essential oils process was a little over my head. However, Greg was happy to walk us through each essential oil personally explaining the health benefits.Everything from the logo down to the love put into the tour experience was wonderful. Thank you Greg & Nancy & Paul & anyone I might have missed.Greg is 100% Green / Solar.Please call in for a visit.

We had a Carnival Cruise excursion today and one of our stops was at the Kona Natural Soap Company. We were given an excellent tour of the farm and given insights into the cultivation of Coffee, Cocoa and avocados to name a few plant species. The farm is amazing and you can feel the symbiosis of all the plant and animal life on the farm. We also were informed about how the soaps are hand made and enhanced with local ingredients from the farm and the infusion of essential oils. The farms owner Greg was awesome and allowed our group to taste raw Cocoa seeds from a freshly cut pod. We had an amazing experience and we look forward to our next trip to Hawaii to visit the farm again!
