Fitch Lumber is a fourth-generation family business, and David Fitch is currently at the helm carrying forward the Fitch legacy. In business since 1907, Fitch Lumber is one of the oldest active enterprises in Orange County — and a pillar of the local community!
Buying local makes a huge difference to customer and business alike, and Fitch’s role as local hardware store and lumberyard occupies a needed — if rapidly disappearing — niche that’s too often taken over by big-box stores. Having been part of Orange County for generations, the Fitch family and their business have seen quite a few changes around town, and worked to make this community better every year along the way.
Listen below as David Fitch talks about what it’s been like to run the family business, the changes that Orange County has seen over the years and more as part of “This is Tourism!”
This weekly segment uncovers the local impact the tourism industry has on our community, told through the stories of the people who make tourism flourish in Orange County. Listen during the Ron Stutts Show every Thursday at 8:40 for a new “This is Tourism” live interview!
