Farm Spotlight: 54 Green Acres
We bid farewell to to Summer 2026 with a blissful visit to the Southern Oregon wonderland that is 54 Green Acres. This idyllic Cave Junction family farm boasts an awe-inspiring beauty that mirrors the heart and dedication of owner Vin Deschamps, his beloved wife and muse Kate, and the small but mighty 54 Green Acres team. Not only a cannabis farm, 54 Green Acres is abuzz with bees making honey, a sprawling apple orchard that bears fruit for the most divine cider, as well as chickens, rabbits, and other food crops. Beyond the beaming sunflowers and pleasantly plump pumpkins, a walk down a tree-lined hill reveals the magnificent 54 Green Acres cannabis grow, nestled between towering trees and an expansive sun-drenched field. The Sucker Creek sparkles under the sunlight just a short stroll away- an immaculate water source for the 54 Green Acres crops, with water rights dating back to 1882.
Established in 2015, 54 Green Acres has become a leader in the cannabis industry, renowned for their exceptional plants, ethos, and innovation. In a state full of talented, hard-working cannabis producers, Vin and his team keep the bar set high while sharing their knowledge and expertise to uplift the industry. 54 Green Acres's award winning farm is both Sun + Earth Certified and Certified Kind- among the highest organic cannabis certifications that are reflective of both plant and producer. These trusted third-party certifications are well-earned by farms growing the cleanest cannabis while focusing on regenerative farming, environmental stewardship, community enrichment, and shared practices.
54 Green Acres cannabis is a fan-favorite for its incredibly tasty terpene profiles and robust cannabinoid content. From proprietary genetics fine-tuned for their unique terroir to a meticulous curing process, 54 Green Acres goes the extra mile to preserve the beneficial qualities of each plant, making their cannabis a perfect pairing for our 2-step CO2 extraction process. Beyond the grow, 54 Green Acres completely renovated their drying room for the 2024 harvest season, adding clean-air technology aligned with organic practices, resulting in a pristine, healthy environment that benefits plants and people alike, while preserving the volatile terpenes and delicate aromatics we love from their stand-out strains. With a slow curing time in ideal conditions, the cured whole plants we receive at Farmer's Friend are optimal for our extracts, showcasing the benefits of our Aromatic Fraction Extraction process, introduced in the Spring of 2025. Our Green Dragon full spectrum oil collaboration won the Oregon Leaf's 2025 award for Best CO2 Vape, celebrating the exceptional 54 Green Acres flavor and effects we captured in our extracts, with true-to-flower aromas and taste unlike anything we had experienced before.
Farmer's Friend was lucky to walk among 54 Green Acres's stand-out strains in all their glory right before this season's harvest. We can't wait to work with their cannabis once cured, including tried-and-true favorites as well as some beautiful 54 Green Acres strains we have yet to work with. Enjoy the 2026 harvest in the months ahead, featuring Indica strains Afghani Kush, Bubba Kush, Hindu Kush and Kali, Hybrid strains Peachtree, Sundae Driver and Super Boof, and Sativas Blueberry Cheesecake, Dragon Parfait, Green Dragon, Orange Apricot MAC, Orange Creamsicle, Orange Oasis, Rainbow Push Pop, and Super Boof.
