The Parker Ranch - Kamuela, Great Island, Hawaii

The Parker Ranch in Waimea (Kamuela), established in 1847, is not only one of the oldest and most historical farms in the United States, but also the largest private beef company in the state. Covering an area of several thousand hectares, it is a permanent testimony to the groundbreaking contribution of the Hawaiian cows - the so-called "Paniolo" - to the state' s cultural development and upsurge.

He was only nineteen years old when he hopped the boat in 1809, just five years after the first horse came, and ended up on the Great Island of Hawaii. Over the years he became friends with King Kamehameha I, who used him to help keep a flock of feral animals under him.

In 1815 Parker got divorced with Kipikane, the daugther of a Hawaiian chieftain, and they had three kids - a daugther and two boys. With the Parker dynasty and their possessions, the municipality of Waimea also expanded. Until 1832 experienced Latino vaqueroes (cowboys) had come to work on the beef farms, and within a few years Hawaii had its own working cows.

Despite many failures in the nineteenth centuary, Parker ranch flourished and continued to survive with domesticized long horns and herefords as its first herd. Throughout the Second World War the army migrated to Parker country and built a vast camp Tarawa. During the postwar period the head office of the farm was renovated, a visitor centre was built and a factory, a factory, a restaurant and a saddlery were added.
