Westerlay Orchids
Company founder Joop “Joe” Overgaag had been a greenhouse farmer in the Netherlands before immigrating to Carpinteria, California (along with his wife and four children) in 1978. Joop built his first greenhouses by hand, salvaging oil pipes from the local industry for the frames. In 2009, Joop handed the reins of Westerlay Orchids company to Toine and a second generation began to leave it’s mark.
