Butte Creek Mill - medfordite - 06-24-2020

We are planning on returning to So. Oregon from Portland in the middle of August.  My wife and I were wondering if the mill is open yet or if they are still under construction.  I no longer have Facebook, but I did not see any recent updates other than they were working on it still.    We absolutely loved their ground black pepper and some of the other spices you could buy at the time.

Their last post on FB was back in April... that they were working on it.

Thanks, I looked at their site and it is down, so perhaps they are working on that too.  We hope to be around there anyway when we are back home there.

Alarmed community members are seeing red flags over the rebuild of the Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point after resignations by foundation members, questions about accounting practices, a lawsuit from a contractor and a project manager with a criminal background.

“It’s been a comedy of errors for some time,” said former Eagle Point Mayor Bob Russell, who sold the mill to the Butte Creek Foundation for $136,000 and has resigned from a mill advisory committee because it never had a meeting in over a year.https://mailtribune.com/news/top-stories/lawsuits-resignations-plague-efforts-to-rebuild-historic-butte-creek-mill
