    Our Friends in Almaden Valley,

    We would like to express our gratitude for your outpouring of support following the destruction of our building at Almaden Expressway. We are humbled by your loyalty and concern.

    Like you, we are relieved and grateful no one was injured. We’d like to commend San Jose Fire Captain Mike Van Elgort and his team from the San Jose Fire Department for safely managing the fire.

    Many of you have expressed concerns about our employees. Rest assured, our employees are our most important asset. Many of them have been with us for nearly a decade. Some will be helping to clean up our Almaden location; others will be helping out at our other stores.

    Right now we do not know the cause of the fire. The investigation is ongoing.

    If you would like more information about our nearby Campbell location (2460 S. Winchester Blvd.), please call 408-866-0171. And please remember, our other locations are open and ready to serve you.

    Thanks again for your support. We are extremely grateful for you, our customers, and hope to continue to serve you and your garden from our other locations.

    Frank Benzing
    President
