E Komo Mai-Welcome!

   

    Alani waiting for Bob.  She is the most devoted!

Macadamias are available!!!

 

why do our Macadamias cost $16/pound?

because they are worth it!

Reasons:

1) Macadamias are not the easiest to grow (wild pigs are relentless and terrible pests)

2) Nor to process (hardest shell of all nuts)

3) and then ours are dehydrated (slowly) which is time consuming as it is done in small batches.

Those are the reasons our fresh tasting dry-roasted (no oils) Macadamias are so superior to any others. You, our customers, tell us that all the time.

(FYI Macadamias are more difficult to process than coffee. So much quality control involved!)

Here is a cute note I recently got from a CRNA who was given some by his employer...

."Thank you!!! The Mac nuts are awesome! People who worry about CRNA's getting hooked on fentanyl have never eaten those Mac nuts you send. What's that on my back.......oh no the Mac nut monkey!!!!! Mac nut anonymous here I come."

Mollie the border Collie loves to crack the Macadamias but we are trying to discourage her - we erected a gate so she can not get in to the Macadamia nut shed. I think she'd be toothless by old age if we let her crack all she wants


Our Macadamias are lightly salted, mostly whole, grown & carefully dried by Bob’s brother who lives about 2 hours away on his Macadamia Farm.  Jeff Smith has figured out how to leave them with a sweet, crunchy and with an outrageously delicious flavor. 

He dehydrates them slowly. They are never roasted.They are as natural as they could be with just a sprinkle of salt. 

A comment about these new Macadamias...."most wonderful snack I had ever eaten. I couldn't believe how good those nuts were :)"

 

 Ripe Macadamias Nuts

 

You can tell they are ripe because they fall to the ground.  Next, the husk dries and opens and you can see the Macadamia Nut inside

nut in the house:)

"Oh my!  These things are awesome!" T.D.

Naturally Crispy & Crunchy FRESH

Macadamia Nuts

  You have ever had !

and if that wasn't a good enough reason

Macadamias are on the ATKINS diet as a FREE FOOD!

MACADAMIAS ARE GOOD FOR YOU! 

 According to an article in our West Hawaii Today

   "Recent scientific research ... shows that adding

        macadamia nuts or macadamia nut oil to the diet can 

actually lower total blood cholesterol, and most importantly,

 lower LDL (bad) cholesterol.  Macadamia nuts and cooking oil

 are 80 percent monounsaturated fats, 6 percentage points 

higher than the other stuff."

              Did you know Macadamias have the hardest shell of any nut? 

     The Macadamia nut tree knows it is worth protecting its goodness.

Macadamia Nuts

It is their flavor which is the most magical. 

 Do you Like cashews? 

These are their equal- I think even better.

Jackson Chameleons 

so as an aside..............

Two healthy females.  This female on the left is approximately 7.5 inches in just her body length and her  tail, if it was stretched out is probably another 4 or 5 inches longer.  The one on the right is smaller and younger.

During the spring here, Jackson Chameleons are everywhere, breeding and birthing their young. Bob could find one every day,... until in late June and early July he couldn't find even one to show our grand daughters !  Bob looked everywhere and surmised that they were molting. That's a pretty vulnerable time. After nearly a month, this was the first one we saw. 

                                                            

very young Jackson

 Dave Gershman, our son in law, took these photos below of the chameleon on Bob

                                                                   

                 

                                                                       

Despite its fierce look in the photo, these are docile creatures  that blend into our green foliage all too easily. This male Jackson's is nearly full grown.  You can see wisps of a recent molt in these photos too.  A female does not have those horns you can see projecting from this Jackson Chameleon's forehead.  

and now.............. back to our Macadamia Nuts

   Some of our most ardent Smithfarms' appreciators 

are those who order these Macadamia NUTS

  Wild pigs live in the rainforest just above our farm and sometimes it is a fight to see who gets the Macadamias!  The wild pig's diet consists of avocados, macadamias, the inside of tree ferns, and whatever they can snarfle up from wet mud.  When the pigs get too close to our house - we can see them from our dining room table, and if they go after the dogs, Bob has to call a halt and he humanely & permanently discourages them.

 SO tell me, tell me.............., nah, just show me the 

                   infamous Filipino Clubhouse Road 

    where those  Macadamia Nuts & KONA honey

& SMITHFARMS Kona coffee all live!

  wait a sec......one last interesting object

    

   Even the shy Bufo marinus almost hiding under the macadamia nut leaves in the photo above, lives on our farm ---under a Macadamia Nut tree..  

According to Honolulu Magazine, December, 1995, page 22. 

"C. E. Pemberton gives Paradise of the Pacific this account of how he single handedly introduced the toad for the Hawai'i Sugar Planters Association, in an attempt to control Hawai'i's spiraling insect population: 

'In 1932 the writer collected 148 adult Bufo marinus in Puerto Rico and brought them to Hawai'i packed in boxes of excelsior.  Part of this lot was sent by express...almost all arrived in good condition after the three weeks journey.'  Within three years, these colonists had multiplied impressively - the HSPA"

note:  Dr Pemberton was a distant relative of mine.

 Here we go - SMITHFARMS is two miles up a winding 4 wheel drive road!

We don't encourage visitors for a few reasons- it IS a 4 wheel drive road, it IS our (only) house, we have 3, often muddy, jumping dogs, and if we are talking and walking with others, we aren't getting our work done. Hope you understand.
