Growing up in Kihei, Maui, Hawaii, my family frequented Paradise Fruit Stand, a staple of the Kihei community. I hold fond memories of this iconic stand and our family’s daily visits on the way to the beach.
I started Paradise Farms growing local greens, tomatoes, radishes and the like. When my daughter was born in 2007, I partnered with Good Earth Farms to allow for more time with my family.
Good Earth Farms
Kevin McBride has been a long time friend of mine and partner in Good Earth Farms from the start. As founder of Plan It Earth Farms in Terrebonne, Kevin remains a primary supplier of local greens, veggies, tomatoes, and tomato starts for Paradise Produce every year.
Rooper Ranch
Jack Rooper started as a young farmer at the age of 16 with Good Earth Farms. He now owns Rooper Ranch with his wife Amy and their young family. Their family-run farm in Redmond, Oregon is our main producer supplying us with beautiful local mixed greens, spinach kale, arugula, chard, beets, cucumbers, zucchini, tomatoes, and carrots.
In 2008, I started Paradise Produce Stand on Century Drive in an effort to bring some Aloha to Bend. Since then, Paradise Produce Stand has been providing Bend’s Westside with fresh, quality produce. I am dedicated to keeping the local, small-town feel of Bend alive.
Organic and Local
I source organic and local produce whenever possible from Central Oregon, Willamette Valley, and Yakima Valley farms. To ensure we always have a wide variety of produce, we also supplement with items outside of the area when necessary.
I look forward to seeing you at the stand!
Adam Bass, Owner and Founder
