Welcome to Dharma Farms. Owned and Operated by Allan Yoza.

Dharma Farms is a work exchange / WWOOF farm on the Big Island of Hawaii, owned by Allan Yoza. Our goal is to help teach people Bahkti Yoga, hard work and simple living as a healthy lifestyle, physically, mentally, and spiritually. We mostly farm noni, but we have all kinds of fruit growing on the farm. Avocado, mangos, bananas, pineapple, oranges, Ulu (bread fruit), coconut, mountain apple, taro, sugar cane, lychee, and probably more I can't think of right now. It is exciting when the trees we planted years ago finally fruit for the first time.

We have a small crew of payed workers to keep things going but most of our labor is done by wwoofers and other volunteers.
Allan Yoza leads the crew in working on the farm most afternoons. You are expected to work at least 3 hours a day to stay on the farm. Basic food is provided and free vegetarian dinners and bhakti yoga/mantra meditation classes can be had 5 nights a week, at gatherings, on either of 2 neighbor's farms. Rustic cabins are provided at the farm, or you can stay in a room at Allan Yoza's house in Hilo.

Allan Yoza also takes workers out for free surf lessons/sessions on sunday mornings.
