Crafting culinary creations that are
ALWAYS ORGANIC & DELICIOUS!
Island Organic Cuisine offers 100% organic cuisine crafted with integrity and inspired by the honeybee.
Founded by beekeeper and educator Jen Rasmussen Lair, who has cared for honeybees on the Big Island since 2008, we bring the same dedication to purity and quality into every dish.
Our signature creations include raw honey from Paradise Nectar, honey-based sauces, and artisanal honey-sweetened baked goods.
We specialize in farm-to-table catering, private chef services, classes & experiences, and curated meal packages,
designed to nourish and delight with every bite.
We are dedicated to the conservation of the natural world.
Our beekeeping and farm-to-table experiences are a way for us to share the sweetness of Hawaii with others.
We invite you to join us for a culinary experience like no other.
With every seed a vow we sow,
to help the pollinators grow.
- Jen Rasmussen Lair
