Welcome to our weekly feature dedicated to covering Susanville and Lassen County’s business scene! Grand openings, new employees, renovations, new hours… each week we’ll keep you up to date with important information about the businesses you rely on.
Guess Plumbing
You may have noticed the cute Christmas display in the window of the old Deal and Davie building on Main Street. This is the new home of Guess Plumbing, previously located at the old Jeldwen Mill on Johnstonville Road.
Warren and Katherine Guess purchased 1107 Main Street in 2020 and since that time they have put an incredible amount of work into renovating the building and upgrading the surrounding property.
Several plans to continue to update the property are in place. Since purchasing the building they have replaced the roof on the building of Novah Electric, replaced the old wooden sliding doors with new metal roll-up doors, installed a state of the art camera monitoring system and updated a large portion of the plumbing and electrical.
They have also replaced several windows, added new doors, re-stuccoed a large portion of the main building’s exterior, built office space for their ever-growing companies’ operations and added light up signs for Novah Electric and Guess Plumbing.
“In the future we will be renovating the front showroom in anticipation of our expanding business operations,” explains Warren Guess.
“We would like to give sincere gratitude to our employees and our customers for their continuous support. Your belief and trust in my husband’s expanding business has been essential to it’s success,” adds Katherine Guess.
Carbivore
Woode’s Goodies has a new side business called Carbivore!
With a background in culinary and years of perfecting recipes Erin Wood, owner of Woode’s Goodies at 905 Cottage street, has created Carbivore, a business with a unique twist on everything carb related, a homemade kitchen with a cottage license in the state of California.
They offer many types of unique fresh sourdough bread, which is made weekly. They offer a wide variety of freeze dried candies and seasonings to make dips. They also carry sweet homemade treats such as cookies, cakes, and pies and seasonal goodies that are perfect for a last minute Christmas gift.
The Golden Poppy
Tonight is the official Grand Opening and Solstice Celebration at The Golden Poppy, Cafe & Dessert Bar. The Golden Poppy is located in the historic Pioneer Saloon building at 724 Main street in Susanville.
They will be sampling some of their drinks and sweet treats, taking fun pictures at the Photo Booth, and Side Iron BBQ will have dinner specials for the evening.
Most importantly, they will be celebrating their opening by raising money for Crossroads Ministries, via Sunrise Rotary of Susanville.
Community partners have donated goodies for an awesome gift basket to be raffled off, and they will be creating a Tree of Life, where your donation personalizes an ornament in celebration of what you are most grateful for.
Tonight’s shindig is from 5:00 to 7:00. Make sure you stop by to sample some delicious drinks and treats and enter the raffle for a gift basket.
