Supports our mission!
here is a new business name in town that is making a significant impact in Butte County. Formerly known as the Work Training Center’s landscaping, janitorial, and recycling services; these activities are now known collectively as Fair Street Solutions. Within Fair Street Solutions, there are four separate business activities: Fair Street Landscaping, Fair Street Nursery, Fair Street Janitorial Services, and Fair Street Recycling. This is not simply a cosmetic or marketing name change. This change is the result of a transformed business model for the Work Training Center. Instead of representing individual training programs for individuals with developmental disabilities, this name change signifies the emergence of four highly competitive, professional business entities that are now directly competing with other like businesses in Butte County. No longer just a training program for individuals with developmental disabilities, each entity boasts a highly qualified, professional staff that is competing directly for your business.

Fair Street Landscape Services provides a full range of design, installation, maintenance and clean-up services. Supported by a fleet of vehicles and industrial equipment, our Landscape operations can service client needs throughout Chico, Oroville, and Paradise. In fact, Fair Street Landscape Services is
actively engaged with helping our clients in Paradise, both new and old, reestablish the beauty and tranquility of their yards following the devastation of the Camp Fire. Fair Street Nursery provides a wide range of plants and succulents that are available to the public for individual purchase, to businesses for bulk purchase, and to support our own Landscape design and maintenance needs. Many of our plants are grown from seed assuring competitive prices and outstanding quality.
Our mission is to serve our customers while giving the proceeds of everything we do to help adults with disabilities in our community. Fair Street Janitorial Services meet a vast range of institutional business needs. Working with state of art equipment, our services are specifically geared to address high volume or high traffic areas that need to be
maintained for a consistent and professional visual appeal. Finally, our Fair Street Recycling Center continues to be a mainstay of recycling operations in Chico. As one of the few California Refund Value (CRV) centers in the region, our recycling operations support all California CRV product types from aluminum to plastic. These Fair Street Solutions businesses all operate under the Work Training Center umbrella. Our businesses are staffed both by clients of the Work Training Center as well as regular non-client workers, and all our staff earn at least minimum wage. Fair Street Solutions has successfully competed against other traditional service companies for work with the City of Chico, CALTRANS, and an increasing number of commercial companies and private individuals.
