Yesterday, our crew finished grouting the lower floor of the Copper Crown of the Hazelnut Inn which signalled the substantial completion of this project. It is a milestone eight years in the making. This suite, like the Under Hill and North Star suites before it, is already breathtaking in its splendour and elegance. In the next weeks, there will be final inspections and approvals, and the housekeeping crew will do a thorough cleaning and sanitize before we begin hanging the draperies, pictures and move in the custom furniture. We are down to the exciting final details now and counting the days until the grand reveal and open house on June 6th. Stay tuned…
Corn Party 2026
Yesterday, I made my way down to San Antonio, Texas, for the annual Corn Party, a gathering/convention of pumpkin farms from across North America. It is our third year attending this convention, and we will see many of our existing client friends and hopefully meet a whole bunch of new ones. I spent the morning setting up our booth, testing the slide show and getting ready for the crowd of farm owners soon to arrive. This gathering is small compared to the other shows we attend, but it will be fun and exciting to meet with so many farm owners in one place over the next two days.
Ready for grout
All of the tile floors are now laid in the Copper Crown, with a thorough cleanup underway, which will be followed by grouting tomorrow. Once the grout is sealed, the space will be ready for the plumber and electricians to do their final work. The draperies and wall hangings are in progress, and the area rugs and furniture are at hand and ready to begin the move-in. It is hard to believe that eight long years of work on the Hazelnut Inn are almost complete. Outside, the gardening crew is busy doing the spring cleaning, pruning and readying the beds for the annuals, which aren’t too far off. On June 6th, we will be hosting an open house to let everyone get a peek inside the fabulous Copper Crown Suite. Stay tuned…
