Deer Hollow’s historic White Barn will receive major enhancements and structural improvements, thanks to a funding partnership approved this past summer between the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District, the City of Mountain View, and the Friends of Deer Hollow Farm.
FODHF and Midpen received generous donations totaling $330,000 from the Tindall Family estate, and, along with $35,000 from The City of Mountain View and funds from the 2014 Measure AA bond, renovation plans are underway with construction planned for fall 2019. Total costs of renovations are estimated at $450,000 to $600,000.
“Through partnerships we’re able to preserve this historic ranch and provide environmental education to the community, including thousands of local children who enjoy the farm’s outdoor camps and programs each year,” said Midpen’s General Manager Ana María Ruiz.
