About Us
Håfa ådai and Welcome to Hafa Bee Farm!
Nestled in the heart of Guam, Hafa Bee Farm is where island flavors meet artisanal craft. We're passionate about creating premium, handcrafted products that capture the tropical flavors and spirit of our beautiful island.
Our Story
Hafa Bee Farm was born when Yuka met Miki, and Miki was introduced to Yuka's family in 2023. Miki had previously owned and operated a restaurant in Tumon. There Miki developed and successfully sold jams and fermented pepper sauce in Guam and Japan.
After many discussions, a vision was set to grow majority of produce ingredients in a farm to address any interruption in supply. As many of the islanders know, Guam imports almost all of produce and consumables; thus, the mindset in growing produce for reliable and high-quality ingredients.
With the thought of farming came the idea of needing the help of pollinators. That's where beekeeping came in.
To those fortunate enough to call the beautiful island of Guam home, it is common and encouraged to greets friends, family, and visitors with a warm Håfa ådai (pronounced half-a-day and it means Hello)!
The rest is history! ... and the brand name Hafa Bee Farm was born!
Challenges
The plan to farm got derailed when Typhoon Mawar hit Guam in 2023. Habanero pepper plants were damaged by the typhoon (sigh and tear). Then came the high wall of bringing water to the farm. Connecting to existing water line to bring water to the farm was prohibitively expensive (another sigh). For a while, Miki was bringing bottles of water to keep the remaining plants from drying. Then came the chickens and wild dogs that uprooted and scattered our seedlings (cry) A water catchment system was discussed but due to many other challenges, beekeeping and farming was set aside for now. We have to forge forward.
