The 270,000-acre Tejon Ranch is the largest working ranch in California, and little has changed since the Ranch was founded in 1843. Just as in the days of the vaqueros, cowboys on horseback still herd cattle on open grazing land. Orchards and vineyards yield their bounty on fertile acreage at the base of California’s agricultural Central Valley. Vast stretches of Ranch land remain in their natural state, serving as one of the few living links to an era of prestigious ranchos, thundering herds of cattle, the spirit of determined pioneers, and the legacy of old California.
