An Informative News-Memo for Customers, Vendors, Business Associates and Employees

A Memo from the Teufel Family
Most of us look forward to the Holiday Season with anticipation. It is a chance for us to participate in traditions, spend time with family and friends, share some great food, and reflect on the fact that even though we are surrounded by bad news, we still have much to be thankful for.

Here at Teufel, holiday traditions run especially deep. After all, our family has been an active part of the holiday season for generations.

Looking back, I'm not sure OSHA would have approved of how young I was when I first helped out in the business. But those memories are part of why the Holidays are my favorite time of year!

Wreaths, Garland and Swags - Oh my!

Ready or not, the holidays are right around the corner. Even though our business has evolved far beyond what our great grandfather, Gustav Teufel, could have ever imagined, there are certain things that remain a constant. With temperatures dropping and rain falling, it is time to start the harvest. And then the real fun begins ... production.

In addition to time honored favorites, our designers create exciting new combinations each year. Starting with the highest quality materials available (Juniper heavy with berries from the high desert, colorful Incense Cedar, fragrant Noble Fir from the high Cascades, and of course the crowning symbol of the holidays, Holly from our own orchards), each piece is hand crafted, just as it has been done for generations. It is this personal touch that makes every item unique.

Teufel holiday products are enjoyed throughout the United States and as far away as Japan. Our holiday items are sold through wholesale florists, retailers, customized for catalog sales, and a staple for fund raising events.

Even Martha Stewart joined in the festivities several years ago by sending her television production crew to record the Teufel story for a holiday feature. It turns out that nobody appreciates a premium quality, hand tied wreath more than Martha.

We here at Teufel's are proud that we have proceeded through the
restructuring process by meeting every timeline. We are now awaiting a review of our submitted plan and are anticipating a positive result. And, we couldn't be more proud of the outstanding service our employees have provided to our customers, clients, and partners.
