Our Story

Founded in 2019 by Marcos and Michele Santos, Sun Farm Hawaii grew from a deeply personal dream inspired by the birth of their third child, Malia. They envisioned raising their children connected to nature, guided by family wisdom and rooted in community. What began as a vision soon became a calling, a belief that the land chose them and they chose to honor it.

For over 20 years, Marcos and Michele have served the Hawaii community through their dedication to health, wellness and mindful living. Originally from Brazil, they met at Hawaii Pacific University and built a life grounded in purpose and service. Marcos completed the GoFarm Hawaii Program and became a certified Nutritional Coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York.

Before creating Sun Farm in Hawaii Kai, they owned and operated Taste of Paradise, a health-focused restaurant on the North Shore. Their passion for nourishing others evolved from preparing meals to cultivating the land.

Michele is also the founder of Sun Yoga Hawaii, serving the community since 2012. The philosophy of Mind, Body, and Soul guides everything they do, creating a space that nurtures the land, supports the community and inspires conscious living.Sun Farm Hawaii is more than a farm. It is a reflection of family, purpose and gratitude for the aina.
