Events

Step back in time and experience daily life on a sprawling California rancho at the turn of the last century. Docent-guided tours of the Camarillo family’s 1892 Queen Anne Victorian home provide access to all 15 rooms, including the family’s bedrooms and Adolfo’s study and ranch office (now an exhibit room with revolving displays). Admire the 12-foot ceilings and extensive interior woodwork as you wander the house. Items belonging to the Camarillo family, historical photographs, and period-appropriate furnishings bring to life the colorful stories shared by our knowledgeable docents. Don’t forget to step outside and take in lovely views of the front lawn and gardens from the home’s generous wraparound porch.

Historic Home Tours last between 45-60 minutes and include access to the first and second floors.

When: Saturday – Monday, between 12pm & 3pm

Where: 201 Camarillo Ranch Rd, Camarillo

Over the years, the Camarillo Certified Farmers Market has become a community meeting place where friends, neighbors and strangers shop, socialize and celebrate “the Good Life” and our agricultural heritage. The Market is managed and run by Camarillo Hospice volunteers, and a percentage of all gross sales directly benefits Camarillo Hospice.

UPDATE: The market will be open July 4, 11, 18 and 25
