MERRY FLOCKER
Mario Alvarez flocks a Christmas tree at Lopez Ranch Pumpkins and Christmas Trees Is located at 1020 Victoria Avenue in Venice. Lopez Ranch is veteran and locally owned. They offer many varieties of fresh Christmas Trees, direct from the growers, fresh greens, garlands, wreaths, swags, door charms, poinsettias, lights, ornaments and decor!
Lopez Ranch was founded by Eleuterio and Arcadia Lopez in 1935. Eventually the family became land owners and farmers in Northern and Southern California and had a very popular gourmet market and nursery on Jefferson Blvd, in Mar Vista. In 1967 Charlie Lopez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lopez, decided to cultivate pumpkins on the Mar Vista property and the rest is history! Lopez Ranch was the first pumpkin patch in California and is the only native Angeleno-owned pumpkin patch in the Venice area. The "Big Pumpkin" was born in 1968 -- this has become a Halloween tradition for generations and generations to come! 🎄
