Wayne Jones

Wayne J was founded in the early 1960s by Wayne Jones, who was raised on a farm in Nebraska and worked in the construction industry. He married his wife, Lois, in 1951 and they moved to California. Wayne had the spirit of an entrepreneur and had long dreamed of starting his own business before developing the mining company which bears his name.

Brett Jones

Three generations of the Jones family have worked in the business and continue to honor Wayne’s legacy. Wayne J is now owned and operated by Wayne’s son, Brett. Brett’s wife Laurie and their four children: Jackie, Dean, Erik and Launa have all worked at Wayne J through some capacity to honor their grandfather.

Erik Jones

PRESENT: Brett’s son, Erik, has taken on management duties for Wayne J. The fourth generation is up-and-coming as well, Erik’s adorable daughter, Eve. The family continues its commitment to the Moorpark community, as well as developing eco-friendly methods and innovative products.

Wayne’s Way

Visiting trucks on the Wayne J Quarry were passing through roads that were once rural but becoming increasingly residential. To avoid impacting new and future residents, Wayne Jones built a new road through the hills connecting directly to SR-23. The road was finalized in 2002, on Wayne’s funeral day. The Jones funded the environmental reviews supporting this project. These reviews span the last 13 years, since the Jones first filed this application in 2003. The Jones stuck through the process throughout – another example of their commitment to the operation.
