Just across the street from Pipeline’s legendary surf breaks lies one of Oʻahu’s most quietly transformative destinations—Waihuena Farm. Located in Pūpūkea on the North Shore, this small-scale, regenerative farm weaves together agriculture, wellness, and community in a way that feels both grounded and forward-thinking. It’s not just a place to buy fresh produce—it’s a place to engage with the land, slow down, and reconnect.
Waihuena Farm was established with a mission to cultivate both food and community. The farm produces a diverse array of organic fruits and vegetables, using no-till and regenerative practices that support long-term soil health and ecosystem balance. From leafy greens and root crops to bananas, papayas, and herbs, the food grown here is meant to nourish both body and mind. Many locals and visitors experience Waihuena through its CSA program, which supplies weekly produce boxes to households along the North Shore.
In addition to farming, Waihuena has become a wellness hub for the community. The property includes a small outdoor yoga shala and hosts weekly yoga classes, wellness workshops, and seasonal gatherings focused on nutrition, natural living, and spiritual practice. These offerings attract residents, travelers, and practitioners who are looking for something deeper than a typical retreat—something rooted in a sense of place.
What sets Waihuena apart is its integration of lifestyle and sustainability. The farm is home to long-term residents and interns, many of whom help with planting, harvesting, and event coordination. The property also includes small on-site accommodations for those participating in farm stays, internships, or intentional living experiences. This blend of work, learning, and community has made Waihuena a model for what it means to live in harmony with Hawaiʻi’s land and values.
For visitors, Waihuena is a place to experience something truly local and mindful. Whether you’re stopping by to pick up fresh greens at their farm stand, attending a yoga class under the trees, or simply walking the garden paths after a morning at the beach, you’ll find the energy here peaceful and purposeful.
Located just minutes from Sunset Beach and Pūpūkea’s coastal hikes, Waihuena Farm is a low-key but unforgettable stop that invites travelers to experience a different side of Oʻahu—one that’s rooted in the land, shaped by community, and dedicated to growth in every sense of the word.
