A Not-So-Flashy, But Essential Upgrade: Our New Pole Barn is Complete

At Finca Chocolat, we’re always working to improve our operations—not just in the fields, but behind the scenes where the real logistics happen. We’re excited to share that our new pole barn is officially complete!

While it may not be the flashiest update on the farm, this structure is one of the most used and most appreciated by our team. Whether it’s storing tools, staging materials, or providing shelter during sudden rainstorms, the new barn plays a critical role in our day-to-day operations.

With its completion, we’re nearing the end of our major infrastructure upgrades for the foreseeable future—aside from a planned enhancement to the shade cloth frame in our nursery. In keeping with our commitment to sustainability, we’ll be repurposing materials from the old structure to build small shelters out in the fields. These will offer our crew protection from the elements while working in remote areas of the farm.

This new barn may not make headlines, but it’s built to last for decades and designed to support every aspect of what we do. It’s a practical, necessary improvement that reflects our ongoing investment in the people and systems that keep Finca Chocolat growing strong.
