In 1903, Archibald Hitch and his family left Tennessee and ventured out west, arriving in Moorpark, California. A spot on the map, with rolling hills reminiscent of the Scottish Moors, sweeping views and promising agricultural potential.

Quickly recognizing the climate was perfect for harvesting crops, Mr. Hitch set out planting beans.

Moorpark was a growing community and Mr. Hitch, a dreamer, a doer and everything in between started laying the groundwork necessary to make it sustainable for future generations.

Mr. Hitch instilled principles of sustainability, education, generosity and congregation, that truly made this land a community – and a place to call home.
Today, over a century later, we honor him and his tireless dedication to this land by introducing Hitch Ranch. A part of the new Moorpark where future generations will plant their own passions and watch them grow. Where neighbors become family, where grandparents are just down the street, and childhood friends are commonplace. Whatever journey you’re on, the Hitch Ranch community has a meaningful place for you.
