We can hardly believe it has been a year since we did a little barn raising here at CopenHaven Farms. Time sure flies when you are working hard!

The Barn at Black Jack Acres about one year ago.

We’ve enjoyed a beautiful summer here in the Willamette Valley. In fact, in August our entire family gathered at Black Jack Acres to celebrate the marriage of an old family friend. It was nice to be able to share our farm with friends and family!

Days have been sunny and warm but not too hot, and for the most part the sky has been free of wildfire smoke. We are enjoying being on this new land and in our new production building, and are looking forward to building offices here in October. So before the season changes, we wanted to take a moment to post a few photos from this summer.

Pictured from left to right are Lalena, Veronica, Donevan, Cameron, Marilyn and Christopher. Lalena and Veronica currently work with Christopher and Marilyn, helping to manage the farm.

Unofficial lunch room with the very best view.

Lumber delivery. We’ll be transforming all of this wood into shipping crates over the next month.

Tractor parking. Only the best for our equipment which prefers parking next to wildflowers.
