(540)

The Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site is an educational, non-profit living history farm and museum, which depicts life in the Pikes Peak region in four time periods: American Indian (time immemorial to the present), 1860s Galloway Homestead, 1880s Chambers Home and Ranch, and the 1907 Orchard House, an Edwardian Country Estate. We are located across from the Garden of the Gods Nature and Visitor Center. Enter Garden of the Gods off 30th Street, take the first available left. Follow the road south to the little building that says "Entrance." As part of the City of Colorado Springs Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Department, the Ranch grounds are open daily from dawn to dusk. The buildings, however, are only open during the Summer Living History Program (Wednesday - Sunday) and special events throughout the year. Admissions tickets can be purchased on-location or on our website. If you visit outside of the Living History Program or associated special events, please pick up a map from either of the Ranch’s restroom facilities for a free, self-guided tour and be sure to scan QR codes around the Ranch to learn more. Visit the www.rockledgeranch.com for upcoming special events and more information.

Harvest Festival returns this Saturday, October 3rd from 10am-4pm!

The Ranch buzzes with activities and fun in the crisp autumn air! Discover the art of c***r-making and the history of apples in the Pikes Peak Region at the Workshop. Take a wagon ride with your family, listen to old-time music, gather a pumpkin to take home, scramble for candy, and play festival games.

Does all this talk of harvest make you hungry? Kick back on the lawn with a slice of pie, steaming cup of c***r, and food truck fare. Take time to tour the historic homes, visit the Blacksmith and purchase Ranch-made souvenirs at the General Store.

Tickets are available right here! RockLedgeRanch.Com

We will see you soon!

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Labor Day Vintage baseball game!

We hope you had a wonderful time watching the Camp Creek Cloud Busters play against The Farmers in the September sun. Although the game ended 20-6 in favor of The Farmers, spirits were high as the crowd cheered on their favorite teams.

Summer may be winding down but we find ourselves busier than ever here at Rock Ledge as we prepare for our annual Powwow (September 19th, 10am-5pm), Starlight Spectacular (September 26th, 5pm-9pm) and Harvest Festival (October 3rd, 10am-4pm)

With so many events around the corner our membership is at its best value ever! Sign up online at rockledgeranch.com/membership

Located on the south side of Rock Ledge Ranch is our Black Smith Shop! This reproduction of a 1890s blacksmith shop gives us the opportunity to interpret what it would be like to interact with the local businesses of that time. By the late 1800s blacksmiths spent most of their time repairing commercially manufactured tools and implements. This shop gives us the chance to create and repair items right here on the Ranch and offer the iconic sights and sounds of a traditional blacksmith shop.

If you did not get a chance to visit the Black Smiths Shop during our living history program over the summer, the shop, along with all our other historic buildings will be open from 10am to 3pm this Monday (September 7th) for our vintage baseball game!

We hope to see you soon!

Cheer on our Camp Creek Cloud Busters (the Rock Ledge Ranch home team) at our annual Labor Day 1880s style baseball match. The Cloud Busters are no “farm team,” but need your support to cheer them on to victory! Enjoy the sights and sounds of an American historic pastime.

Bring small bills for refreshing old-fashioned sodas, peanuts, popcorn, and crackerjacks! Bring your lawn chairs or blankets for seating. The General Store will be open for Ranch-made goodies and gifts, and all historic homes will be open from 10am until the baseball game begins.

First pitch is at 1:00 pm, this Monday, September 7th!

Rock Ledge Ranch is excited to introduce “Ranch ‘n’ Roots”, a new nature exploration program happening every Friday throughout the Fall, Winter and Spring. This family-focused program will celebrate the natural wonder of the Front Range by featuring a topic relating to the ecology and human history of Rock Ledge Ranch. Topics can range from clouds, snakes, horses, gardens, trees and possibly even lions (no tigers) and bears “oh my!” Each week will include a variety of books, crafts, games, activities and nature walks.
This program will require parent participation and is intended for elementary-aged children. Younger children are welcome to come just be aware that the activities will be geared for grades K-6th. If younger students intend to participate, they must be registered.
For all of our homeschooling families, this program will not require a Notice of Intent.
The program costs $180 per student per semester, or, if families intend to pay for the whole year, $325 per student per year (about a 10% discount).
This program will run every Friday from 9am-12pm for 12 weeks each semester starting on Sept. 4th. The first semester will run from September 4th through November 20th, and the second semester will run from February 12th through May 7th.
