On Saturday, September 20 from 12 – 4 p.m., the San Mateo County Historical Association’s docents at the Sánchez Adobe present their annual Rancho Day Fiesta, a FREE family activity day.

The Adobe is located at 1000 Linda Mar Boulevard in Pacifica.

Take a trip back to the 1840s when Don Francisco Sánchez raised cattle for the hide-and-tallow trade at his Rancho San Pedro.
 
A living history event, visitors will be invited to make adobe bricks, stamp leather, dip candles, make corn husk dolls, churn butter, and participate in other rancho-era activities, including learning how to dance as the early Californios did.
