Our founder, Eugene “Bud” Daggett, believed in giving back to his community. From economic development to senior housing to city council, Bud believed in making a difference. He brought this passion for helping others with him to work, and created a legacy of community involvement. This is carried on as evident by the commitment Hutchinson Manufacturing Employees give back to their community.
