At Ahualoa Family Farms, we're proud to use only 100% Hawaii-grown macadamia nuts in everything that we make. It's not just a point of pride - it's a commitment to our community, our farmers, and the land that sustains us.
Recently, Hawaii Business Magazine published a revealing story about the growing presence of imported macadamia nuts in local-branded products, and how that shift is impacting Hawaii's growers and the integrity of the industry.
Our Bossman, Chad Cleveland, was featured in the piece, sharing insight into why sourcing locally matters and how it affects the future of farming in the islands.
The article is a must-read for anyone who cares about transparency and truly supporting local. It dives into the challenges faced by local farmers when imported nuts enter the supply chain - sometimes without clear labeling - and how that affects demand and Hawaii's agricultural future.
