Our Story

Started in a Garage in Bend, Oregon

In 2003, wilderness guide Elara Moss and third-generation canoe builder Daniel River started Green Voyage with a single belief: that the best canoe is the one made with the most care, from the most responsible materials, by craftspeople who actually paddle them.

Twenty years later, we employ 23 artisans in our Bend workshop, ship to 48 states and 12 countries, and haven't compromised that belief once. Every hull is built to order. Every canoe ships with a lifetime structural warranty.
