Who we are: The Picnic Time Family is all about the people. We're a diverse team of hard-working yet easy-going people who care about what we're doing. If it weren't for the amazing group of people at Picnic Time, we wouldn't be where we are today.

When we do it:  We've been innovating since 1982 and we don't have any intention of slowing down.  The hope is that we'll be here creating great stuff for your kids' kids' kids

Where the magic happens:  We were born in a small garage in West Hills, CA and moved to a bigger (ware)house in a small town, Moorpark, CA, in 1990.  We've been rockin’ the suburbs ever since

Why we do what we do (this is the big one):  Our purpose for existing is to bring family and friends together so that they can make lasting memories...because that's what happiness is all about.  Each and every decision we make is ultimately geared toward that goal.

How we do it:  We're constantly driving towards our purpose via our 8 core values of Fun, Growth, Integrity, Collaboration, Innovation, Service, Productivity, and Passion.
