Barn Renovation

In 2009, with financial assistance from the City of Camarillo, the Camarillo Ranch Foundation completed the renovation of the historic Mule Barn at the Camarillo Ranch. With the addition of the Mule Barn, the Camarillo Ranch has become a year round venue for private and public events. In our first year of operation, the Barn has been host to events including our Member Brunches, Casino Night and several weddings and other private events.

In 1950 the Camarillo horses led the Rose Parade and have participated in many of the parades since then.

Juan Camarillo purchased the 10,000 acre ranch from Jose Pedro Ruiz for $3,000 in gold.
