About Len Honcoop GravelIn 1975, Len Honcoop started a gravel company with just a wheel loader and a Mack dump truck. That company has since grown to a staff of roughly 30 heavy equipment operators, truck drivers and laborers. Looking for an alternative to dairy farming to feed his burgeoning family, Len Honcoop saw an opportunity in aiding other farmers with earthmoving and drainage work. He worked on agricultural projects throughout Whatcom County for years, earning the respect of the community, both for his work in the field and his generosity. In 2015, Len officially retired, leaving day-to-day management to his daughter, Jodi Tjoelker, and her husband, Darren. Together, they operate Len Honcoop Gravel and sister company, Len Honcoop Trucking. Len Honcoop Trucking focuses on long-haul transportation and hauls locally-produced items throughout the continental United States and lower British Columbia. While our roots are firmly embedded in the farm fields of Lynden, we have blossomed into a full-service civil contractor with the latest heavy equipment and GPS machine control capabilities.
