Top June articles: Products, projects and processes

By Emma Peterson.  

This month’s top articles are a perfect example of the variety of content OCS offers. 

Here at OutdoorCoffeeShop™, our goal is to create a digital space where outdoor professionals can meet to grow and learn together. As part of that mission, we publish articles about all kinds of topics, from business leadership to new product innovations. To give you a bit of a taste of the variety of articles we offer, we wanted to share the top five articles from June 2026!  

On this month’s list, we had several articles about how operating a business has changed recently. One article highlighted a conversation between Heidi J. Ellsworth and Eric Voyer from The Farnsworth Group about how contractors and other professionals can navigate uncertain and unstable markets. Another focused on how the digital era has changed marketing and sales – specifically the way word-of-mouth works. And yet another article highlighted how homeowners' priorities are shifting away from the McMansions of the 1980s-2000s and towards sustainability-focused green homes.  

This month also saw articles about unique projects. I got the opportunity to write one about a 38,000-gallon saltwater swimming pool in Missouri that was made of the innovatively light and versatile Nudura Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs). There was also an article from Jenny Yu highlighting a product that helps contractors work faster while delivering long-term performance – K9 Fasteners' Doberman™ Premium Deck Screw.
