This site was once part of the former 22,000-acre Lewis F. Moulton Ranch. The original barn, bunkhouse, shed garages, and a century-old cactus, along with some antiquated farming implements and ranching equipment, remain from what was once one of the largest, most expansive, thriving ranches in South Orange County. The buildings here are the oldest structures in Aliso Viejo and date back to the 1920s and 1930s. Their presence and the stories left behind by the Moulton family, the tenant farmers who leased the land, and those who worked on the ranch provide a glimpse into the region's agricultural and ranching history of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The older structures reflecting the early farming and ranching era have been preserved and adaptively reused, agricultural crops have been reintroduced, and new buildings are historically based and designed to take advantage of the topography, exhibit sustainable farming methods, and reinforce the history of the site as ranch and farming land dating back over a hundred years.
