Holly Farm makes the Beaverton Valley Times


Operation holly-day cheer is in full effect at Teufel Holly Farms in West Haven and Cornelius.

Like the elves in Santa’s workshop, an army of more than 300 employees is hard at work creating 100 different unique designs of holly and evergreen wreaths, centerpieces, mantle and table runners, baskets, candleholders, boxwood kissing balls and more in time for Christmas.

Trust me – nobody better understands how busy the holiday season can be.

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!

A Memo from the Teufel Family
 

I'm actually looking forward to Halloween this year. After what we have all been through this past year, I know for a fact that I have already encountered the most scary thing out there ... the economy (made you shudder just thinking about it, didn't I?).

As with most things, once you understand something, it isn't quite as bad as it
first seemed. The stock market is recovering. Home sales are slowly returning
here in the northwest. And there have actually been a number of great projects that we have been involved with this year.

Here are just a sampling of the words of appreciation and support that we have received from satisfied customers and business associates in the past few weeks.

 

"It had been a few years since I had contracted with Teufel, but they have always performed on difficult or challenging projects. When it was time to build our new headquarters building with its tight schedule, Teufel was the first name I thought of. I know we made the right decision when we selected Teufel." -- Mike Nichols, Director of Real Estate and Facilities for Nintendo, Redmond, WA.

 

"Teufel Landscape has performed exceptionally on our projects in the Troutdale Business Center. The large, complex site conditions challenged them to excel beyond our expectations in performance, schedule and cost. Just a project of this shear size would have demanded the most from any landscaper. But Teufel met this challenge head on and staffed the project accordingly. Add to this that Teufel was a partner in developing solutions to challenges, not just presenting them. They have acted as our site partner, not just a subcontractor. Skanska would have no issue recommending
them to other owners and contractors to facilitate their project demands."
Gordon Childress, Senior V.P. Skanska

 

"We have worked with Teufel on countless projects over the years. No matter what size the job, or how complex the scope, the one thing we can count on is that Teufel always figures out how to meet or exceed expectations. Having Teufel on the job means that we all sleep better!" Mark Brumbaugh, Brumbaugh & Associates, Landscape Architecture, Seattle, WA.

 

Here at Teufel we could not be more proud of our contribution to these exceptional projects.

It really puts a smile on my face. Happy Halloween!!


Larry Teufel, President
