| During the Long Beach Gives citywide fundraising campaign, individuals and organizations come together across the city of Long Beach (and beyond!) to invest in our community. When we give, we take a proactive step toward creating the society we desire. Last year, our friends and supporters raised over $15,000 for the Rancho during the Long Beach Gives 2020 campaign. We need your help to reach our goal of raising $20,000 in 2021. Stay tuned for more information about how you can help the Rancho through Long Beach Gives. |

Rancho Los Alamitos, the “Ranch of the Little Cottonwoods,” is a Long Beach City Landmark and is twice listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Rancho has a continuous history of habitation that stretches back for more than 1500 years and reflects the many people who have called it home – from the first people, the Tongva, to the Spanish and Mexican colonists, right up to the Yankee farmers of the mid-twentieth century. The 7½-acre site includes four acres of nationally significant historic gardens, a ranch house (1790-1933), and a restored barnyard of the early 20th-century working ranch. Read more > |
Children and adults alike are fascinated and delighted when touring the spacious historic site, communing with nature in the lush gardens and visiting with the farm animals (horses, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, and rabbits) in the barns area. Admission and parking are free. The Rancho is open to the public by reservation from Wednesday-Sunday, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm.
Guests enter at the Bixby Hill residential security gate at the intersection of East Anaheim Road and Palo Verde Avenue. Admission and parking are free.
