Coffee provenance pilot
Pono Proof
Real Hawaiʻi coffee deserves proof. Pono Proof is a free pilot that gives local farmers a simple, tamper-resistant record of where their coffee was grown and how it got to the cup.
Join the pilot interest listHow it works
Record at the farm
Harvest date, farm, and varietal are logged in plain language. No crypto wallet or tech background needed.
Follow the bag
Each step (processing, roasting, packing) adds a simple record, so the coffee's story stays attached to it.
Prove it's real
Buyers scan a code to check where the coffee came from. Records can't be quietly changed later.
Pono Proof is an education and community pilot. It doesn't involve buying or selling crypto, and it isn't investment advice.
