Top choice in Moloka'i
Enthusiastic nut farmer Tuddie Purdy takes you on a free tour of his more-than-80-year-old orchard, explains how the nuts grow without pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers, and then lets you sample them. Everything is done in quaint Molokaʻi style: you can crack open macadamia nuts on a stone with a hammer and then try macadamia-blossom honey scooped up with slices of fresh coconut. The awesomely flavorsome nuts and honey are for sale at the farm.
The farm is 0.3 miles off Hwy 490.
