With more than 10 years of experience as a professional writer, Megan holds a degree in Mass Media from her home state of Minnesota. After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
If there’s one beverage Hawaii is known for, it’s coffee. After all, Hawaii is the only American state with land able to grow coffee. And while we love Hawaii Island’s famous Kona Coffee as much as the next person, we’re pretty into the coffee farms you’ll find scattered across Hawaii’s other main islands — including the island of Oahu. Located on the outskirts of one of Hawaii’s most underrated towns, Wahiawa, is Green World Coffee Farm, a coffee lover’s paradise smack dab in the middle of the island.
Tucked between two Hawaii state highways just outside Wahiawa is Green World Coffee Farm, a quirky coffee shops with local coffee, tea, espresso drinks, and a variety of baked goods.
With painted green walls full of hilarious coffee signs, prints, and memorabilia, Green World is part coffee shop, part working farm and roastery, part retail store — and 100 percent amazing.
The nearby farm consists of seven acres and approximately 2,000 Arabica coffee trees, and they source other blends from across the Hawaiian Islands, so you know your coffee is not only fresh, but purely Hawaiian.
Coffee beans are roasted on-site Monday through Friday to ensure your coffee is as fresh as can be and if you ask one of the workers nicely, they might explain the entire process of how your coffee came to be — from tree to cup.
You can also stock up on gifts for your family and friends from the extensive gift shop with a variety of coffee beans, tea leaves, mugs, t-shirts, local art, and souvenirs. There are plenty of free samples available, and the staff will grind the beans for you after your purchase as well.
In operation since 2013, Green World has quickly made itself a must-stop pit stop for locals and tourists alike headed up to the north shore, or simply traveling through the middle of the island.
On the weekends, locals from across the island as well as coffee-crazy tourists flock to the shop for their caffeine fix, but during the week, Green World is an excellent destination to stop and get some work or studying done.

I may have written this article while sitting at Green World on a Tuesday afternoon, sipping iced coffee and enjoying one of their mouthwatering blueberry muffins. (You know you hang out somewhere a lot when your wi-fi automatically connects on both your phone and laptop.)
