Sweet
Okole Farm: The Secret “Behind” Their Name
 |
The inspiration behind the name, Sweet Okole. |
Perched on the slopes of Mauna Loa, Sweet Okole Farm produces organically
grown, hand-picked and processed Kona coffee. Planted
in 1990, Sweet Okole Farm has steadily grown in size and popularity. Patrick,
the farm’s founding father, still works every stage of the growing, harvesting,
and production of his coffee beans. When asked about the farm’s name, Patrick shared, "my granddaughter suggested that I was working my butt off on the farm and there was a song out with ties to the local area; so we came up with the Sweet Okole Farm name eight years ago"
(in
case you didn’t catch on, okole is Hawaiian for butt J).
