Keiki & Plow

We were eagerly anticipating a peaceful retreat from the holiday hustle and found just that at the farm--a truly magical escape! Our visit felt like stepping into a beautiful, serene world.Our daughters had a fantastic time swinging, exploring the playground (though it's for toddlers up to age five), and letting their imaginations run wild as they played pretend kitchen with natural elements. They enjoyed feeding the chickens and petting the goats. The holiday open farm day was a delightful experience, featuring delicious hot cocoa, soothing live music with singing and guitar, and a creative ornament-making station stocked with paint, stickers, tape, and bells.We wrapped up our day with a $10 basket brimming with freshly picked vegetables--eggplant, vibrant carrots, fragrant cilantro, fresh basil, and a variety of kale. It was the perfect way to end our visit.

Finally had the opportunity to visit this great little spot. It is very easy to find and parking is plentiful. Cute little check in stand as soon as you drive up on the right hand side.They have porta potties that they decorated with wood panels to cover up the ugly blue which I thought was such a good idea. They are very clean! There is also a cute little sink outside with running water and soap.Nice open area with benches and shade. We brought food and snacks and had a little picnic on the benches. Lots of sinks everywhere to keep your hands clean. They also have a water dispenser to fill up water bottles.My kids loved the slides and walking around the farm checking out the produce. We didn't buy any but might next time. It was $4 for 1 very small papaya. They also liked holding the chickens.You can do a you pick basket based on size. Depending on what is available you can pick and wash your own produce. I did not partake in this because the fruit was not included. Admission is pricey at $10-$12 a person. It was $48 for myself and 3 kids. Not something we can afford on the regular. I don't understand why adults have to pay. For the price of admission I feel like we should at least be able to get a small basket of produce for $48. It is pretty well maintained but I did notice exposed nails on the wooden gate for the goats. This could cut someone very soon. I wouldn't say that the staff is the friendliest. I would say that maybe they were annoyed that people were there. There should be a little more directions posted or more volunteers in the front. A few people ahead of us needed a little more help and you could tell she was irritated. The young worker in the chicken coop was so very nice. She was friendly and kind to all the kids. ***you must buy your tickets in advance online. There is also a processing fee as well. They do not allow walk ups. I over heard the lady at check in say if you come 5 times you get a basket of produce for free. She did not tell me this or offer me a stamp card of my own. Not sure why she didn't tell me or the people in front of me but choose to tell other people. It is a fun little day time excursion to do with kids under age 5. We will be back again one day. Being covered shoes and water.

In the event you have been avoiding coming here because you heard how dirty your kids are gonna get- CHANGE YOUR MIND!! JUST DO IT! MAKE THE DRIVE AND DIVE IN!! Don't let the porta-potty disguised as an outhouse deter you! Bring a change of clothes, mosquito repellant, snacks, cover the seats, invest in Rain boots and bring lots of baby/body wipes for the aftermath... unless your kid is one of those clean freaks and cries when they touch sand or dirt in which case, you and covid did a number on your kid and you need Keiki & Plow more than ever to get childhood and old-school play back on track! No judgment here! I'm starting with the man in the mirror... I'm telling him to change his ways... la da di da di di di de dada!! **Sigh** Yes, it's true. I was initially selfish and vain and didn't want mud in my car or any crazy additions to my laundry plight... HOWEVER, that all changed after we came here for a birthday party... The atmosphere here at sunset is... indescribable. The joy in your kids' face when they play in the mud kitchen, feed the chickens, pick their own produce, pretend to be pirates, excavate in the sandpit, slide down the GREATEST slide *ever* and cry when they have to leave is ALSO, equally, indescribable. Remember the movie 'Hook' with Robin Williams? Where Pan and the lost boys live? That's what this place feels like! Plus a garden and egg- laying hens. If you want to change up the birthday party scene, come here! Do it here! Follow them on Instagram for upcoming events because they do the COOLEST things throughout the year. We've enjoyed picking our own veggies on regular days, purchased eggs and had wonderful playdates. You can make reservations online. SIDE NOTE: The ground is uneven and very rustic charm- so ditch the slippahs and go for the covered toe shoes that you won't mind getting dirty. Also, IF having a birthday party here and there are elderly invited or people in wheelchair- keep in mind that is uneven terrain and only one port-o-potty.

My duo had a blast coming here. We went for the first time. The parking was a bit confusing. We weren't sure what direction our car needed to face. The staff and volunteers were helpful. We started exploring. I wish there was a brief guided tour for first timers. Then I could make some informed decisions on what we should do. We fed the chickens at 10. Suddenly we had to scramble to pick vegetables before time ran out. Maybe we should have picked produce first then fed the chickens. Then play time on the equipment.

One of my favorite finds for my toddler so far besides the ocean. I stumbled upon this place on Facebook and saw they had a open farm with a few Halloween activities. And let me tell you this place was very affordable and breathtakingly beautiful. They had a little playground for the Keiki, a huge mud kitchen, an area to feed the chicken and pet goats. We also got to pay to get a basket and pick our own produce. This is a hidden gem that I'm already so excited to go back to.

My son and my best friend's son has such a great time here. They loved the trucks in the dirt and played in there for over half an hour. The animals are very docile and are accustomed to people. Before my first trip there I was wondering if I can bring a stroller. And the answer is yes! There is a paved road separating the garden and the play area so you can walk up that to get to where you need to. The activities are right off of it so you won't need to use it far either. I'd suggest wearing clothes that can get dirty and covered shoes.

My kids have been dying to come to the farm. So I finally found a Friday they had no school and we made our way to hawaiikai. keiki and plow didn't disappoint. The kids loved the chickens and ducks. The goats are super cute. I paid $10 for a small basket so they could pick some veggies. I definitely recommend.

I can't remember where I first heard about Keiki & Plow, but my sister visited with her kids a few months ago and came back with the most beautiful pack of eggs. It was one of the most fun things they did on vacation. I was excited about getting to go, myself, and now that my daughter is old enough to not put sand in her mouth, it was worth a shot. I went with a small group of other moms with toddlers. Before I went, I checked the website. It's very informative, with accurate times (Tuesday & Friday 9-11am) and cost ($5 per family). I can't wait to go back. My daughter spent the full two hours having a great time at the play area. They have it set up in stations - - goat pen, chicken pen, sand pit, water play, slide, etc. It's a small area, but there's so much to do in each station, that some kids could probably spend the entire morning at just one or two.On the Tuesday that we went, there were dozens of other kids, but it didn't feel crowded. It was exactly the right amount, so there are other kids to play with, but you don't have to wait to play with anything. Looking forward to going a lot!

This is the perfect place for the 4 and under crowd. I used to bring my twins here all the time when they were preschool aged. They loved getting dirty and digging with all the tools. They adored the fast and big slide. They enjoyed picking fresh greens to take home. Be prepared to get dirty and enjoy this lovely spot!

Fun time with the kids - veggies and apple banana . Thanks Dillon for tips on gardening
