Great tour with fun!!! - Adrian was a blast from meeting us through the end. Totally different fun experience from collecting the eggs to hand selecting all the veggies from the farm. Returned to the “barn” and prepared the full meal from scratch. Lots of fellowship and entertaining. Well worth the price.

Great Experience! - Had a fantastic time with a chef who was very knowledgable about the farm. The location is beautiful and we were able to see the waterfall before and after the lunch. Would recommend for anyone in Hilo. I think we were fortunate we had a great person leading us through the event but the people there rotate quite often so this may change. But it was a fantastic experience!

Awesome day - Eshan, our guide, was amazing. His creative energy for how to use the vegetables grown at the farm for cooking is really amazing. We had a great time. Would do it again.

Farm and Cooking Experience for the Ages - Young people learning to farm on a working organic farm and sharing their experiences? Solid. And then collectively cooking the vegetables you picked? Outstanding. Next time I want to experience the falls. For sure.

Highly Recommend: Fun and Delicious - We had a lovely time with Katie, Tracy, and Angel. We learned a lot about sustainable farming in Hawaii, as well as plant-based cooking. The meal was absolutely delicious. The conversation was fun and interesting. This class is a must-do.

Educational and delicious! - We loved our time with Katie and Sarah. They were ridiculously kind and considerate. They shared so much about the farm, the plants, and how to prepare the meal. They engaged so we'll with my teenage girls and honestly made us feel right at home. One of the best experiences we had on the big island!!

Wow! Great food. Unbelievable farm and exotics - Katie and Carmen crushed it. I told them I'd never met a vegan "cheese" I liked. They changed that with the "nacho cheese" Katie whipped up. The food truly was amazing and one of the best culinary experiences I've had on the Island. I recommend getting the day pass and visiting the bamboo garden while there. I'm definitely getting Katie's cookbook. And if you go in December, you may be lucky enough to try basically custard in a fruit. Craziest fruit ever and can eat like a custard with a spoon. No idea of the name. Wild. Rollinia?

Enjoyable unique experience - The farm tour was very interesting and informative. It was fun getting to select fresh items from the farm to cook in the cooking class. Our guide Ayden was enthusiastic about all of it which made it enjoyable. We were able to participate in the cooking at each step and enjoyed the lunch we prepared. The small size of the group was also appreciated. Would definitely recommend this if you are looking for something different to experience.

Unique enjoyable experience - Enjoyed the farm tour and being able to select the fresh produce that we prepared in the cooking portion. Our tour guide Ayden was enthusiastic which made it enjoyable. It was a very unique experience.

Farm Tour and Homecooked Meal, Not Quite a Cooking Class - Alright, I feel some expectations in the description of this event were not set, so outside of the farm to table cooking that is advertised, here is an overview of my family's experience: 1. The first 2 hours is a farm tour. You will be outside in the sun or rain talking about plants and the farm itself while your guides harvest food to cook later. This is mostly enjoyable, though the personal spiritual and pseudo-scientific conspiracy theories held by our particular guide aren't exactly appropriate for all crowds. 2. There is a cooking portion once you return to the barn, but you will likely prep a veggie or two and then watch the guide prepare the majority of your meal. There are no recipes, no takeaway skills, no instruction. You are free to just enjoy helping a good home cook make you a meal with locally grown ingredients. Overall, this was a fun experience with some good knowledge if you asked the right questions. The mainland-import farmhands that lead this program are not Hawaiian native farmers but a college-student age non-profit org that runs these tours separate from the resort (all facilities are outside the gated area), and while their depth of knowledge as new farmers is limited they do their best to educate and are very friendly.
