Travel Guide
Experience a working vanilla farm and a lunch that highlights all the ways vanilla can be used at the Hawaiian Vanilla Company. The tour begins with beverages of either vanilla ice tea or lemonade followed by lunch.
The main course is a vanilla citrus bourbon chicken sandwich, oven-roasted potatoes with a vanilla southwest rub and an organic salad topped by a vanilla raspberry balsamic dressing, feta and pecans. A vegetarian lunch option can also be arranged. Dessert features a scoop of Hawaiian vanilla bean ice cream and comes at the end of the vanilla presentation and tour of the farm.
Reddekopp’s family-run farm, established in 1998, is the first commercial vanilla operation in the United States. Learn about how the farm came into existence, how vanilla is grown and processed and see for yourself what a vanilla farm looks like. When you are finished with the tour make sure to stop by the gift shop and check out all of the products infused with their Hawaiian vanilla. The gift shop is open Monday through Saturday.
A tour of the farm without lunch is also possible but both require advanced reservations due to limited space.
