2014 Kitayama Brothers Open House
we are part of the
Monterey Bay Greenhouse Growers Open House Event
Saturday, June 21 – 10am to 4pm

·
We like this event because it gives us a chance
to open our doors to the public and share with people what we do. The
Watsonville location has been here since 1970.
·
KB has been a family owned and operated company
since 1948, that’s 66 years! There will be family members, shareholders and some
employees helping out.
·
“The Company” as we all refer to it, was started
by 4 brothers: Tom, Ted, Ray and Kee Kitayama, and was started in the San
Francisco Bay Area in Union City. We also had locations in Brighton, Colorado and
Watsonville, California. Watsonville is the only location still in operation.
·
Proceeds from all sales go to support “Friends of the Santa Cruz State Parks.”
As the state struggles economically, we think it is important to keep our local
parks open and safe.
