Rancho La Patera & Stow House
About this place
A historic ranch in Goleta with preserved buildings and gardens, operated by the Goleta Valley Historical Society. On Sundays from 11 am to 2 pm, families can see farm animals, enjoy outdoor activities, and ride on a tractor, all free of charge. The grounds stay open to the public most days, and visitors can explore the gardens and historic structures to learn about early twentieth-century life in the region. A museum store selling local gifts and historical books is open Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Tours on other weekdays can be arranged in advance.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
