Common questions
Visiting Maui Mountain HomeGrown Coffee
Does Maui HomeGrown Coffee offer farm tours?
Maui HomeGrown Coffee is an owner-led farm experience where Bobbie Becker walks visitors through the full process, from hand-picking to roasting on the Haleakala slopes. Hours are not published, so contact them through mauihomegrowncoffee.com before making the drive to confirm availability and scheduling.
What roasts does Maui HomeGrown Coffee offer?
They offer at least three named roasts: First Light (described as bright), Sunrise (smooth and creamy), and Volcano Roast (rich). All three share natural chocolaty notes characteristic of Maui-grown beans.
Are the beans organic or pesticide-free?
The farm has used no herbicides or pesticides for over two decades, relying on organic growing methods throughout. Check their website to confirm whether they hold a formal organic certification.
How fresh are the beans when purchased?
Beans are roasted weekly to order using an artisan roaster, so they reflect peak flavor rather than sitting on a shelf. This small-batch approach distinguishes them from commercially produced coffee.
Is the farm pet-friendly?
Yes, Maui HomeGrown Coffee is listed as pet-friendly, so well-behaved dogs are welcome on a farm visit.
Where exactly is the farm and how do I find it?
The farm is at 185 Mahiai Pl in Makawao on the volcanic slopes of Haleakala — "Mahiai" means farming place in Hawaiian. Hours are not published online, so calling or emailing ahead before making the drive up is recommended.
