Alternative Transportation Program. In addition to special parking spaces for carpoolers and bike racks, participating employees are paid a subsidy. Since 29 staff members live and work in Carpinteria, this program promises to be very popular. It’s not surprising that 18 of BEGA’s employees have been with the company 10 years or longer. Eighteen-year veteran BEGA employee April


Eaton, happily ensconced in her “new” setting, says “We now have a beautiful structure with plenty of work space, and individual cubicles instead of desks just shoved up against one another. The grounds were beautiful when we moved in and have really grown in nicely. The avocado trees on the property are one of my personal favorites— what’s not to love about free guacamole?” Company President, Don Kinderdick, who liter-


ally and figuratively sits in the catbird’s seat at BEGA, enthusiastically discusses the company, the setting, and the employees. “Not a day goes by that I don’t look out my office window and marvel at our surroundings. I look forward to coming to work, not just because of loving what I do, but be- cause of where I get to do it. It’s also gratifying to have a staff that is every bit as phenomenal as our setting. When you add getting to do business in a community like Carpinteria, it’s hard to imagine a better overall situation.”
