The fruit stand is located right outside of waipio valley and you really can’t miss it if you head to the waipio valley lookout.
I highly suggest grabbing a coconut and then enjoying it on the farm in a covered picnic area. There is amazing views and beautiful cool breeze you can enjoy too! They also have farm animals roaming around and a little pond.
Once you finish your coconut water, the guys will happily cut it up for you at no extra charge to enjoy the fresh coconut meat as a snack! Or save the fresh coco meat and read on below for a delicious and super easy recipe to make coconut milk.
It is delicious and not like anything you will be able to buy in the store!

How to make coconut milk
You’ll need:
- 2 cups shredded fresh coconut
- 3-4 cups water (use less water for thicker, creamier milk!)
- Pinch salt
- 1 Tbsp honey for sweetness
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Add coconut, water, salt, honey and vanilla to a blender. Top with lid and cover with a towel to ensure it doesn’t splash. Blend for about 2 minutes or until the mixture seems well combined.
- Pour the mixture over a large mixing bowl or pitcher covered with a nut milk bag, a very thin towel, or a clean white T-shirt.
- Transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate. Will keep in the refrigerator up to 5 days (sometimes more). Enjoy cold or hot and shake before use, as it can separate in the refrigerator (due to no preservatives!).
