Open every day from 11 am - 2 pm.

Krishna Cow Sanctuary, located on the Big Island of Hawaii, is a haven for over 200 cows, including bulls, steers, calves, and retired mother cows. They offer unique "Cow Cuddle Therapy" sessions and produce cruelty-free "Ahimsa" dairy products by hand-milking lactating mothers alongside their calves. The sanctuary operates across 14 pastures on the island, providing top-quality care while keeping costs low. Their dedication to cow welfare is rooted in the Vedic philosophy of Bhakti Yoga. All proceeds support the well-being of the cows, and they are grateful for the support of donors, customers, and supporters.
