The Fillmore Rotary speaker last week was Rotarian Andy Klittich. He was born in Fillmore and began at Otto and Sons when he was about 12 years old. He graduated from Cal Poly, SLO and because of his degree he got his Pest Control License and began working in that field. He enjoyed working with people and helping them solve problems. In 2012 he married Pam who also graduated from Cal Poly. She is now one of the Ag teachers at Fillmore High School. They also have a daughter, Doris. In 2018 he started working fulltime at Otto & Sons and is the General Manager. They mostly focus on Roses with 700+ varieties and sizes but also have fruit trees and herbs and vegetables. They have classes to help gardeners, a wonderful garden shop, and TomatoMania is coming in March.
