Today, our vineyards and winery comprise an important part of my family’s agricultural operations, and we’re fortunate to have vineyards that yield enough high-quality fruit to estate bottle all our wines. My wife, Diane, and I are proud that our son and daughters, the fourth generation of Gaineys in the Santa Ynez Valley, are continuing our family’s tradition of farming and winemaking in this most beautiful region of California. We invite you to come to visit us the next time you’re in Santa Barbara wine country.

Foxen Canyon Ranch is a working cattle ranch tucked away on over 200 acres. We are located on the Santa Ynez Valley wine trail, just 30 minutes north of Santa Barbara. A striking white barn welcomes you and your guests as you arrive. Open gardens, expansive lawns and century old oaks, provide the perfect atmosphere for any event. There are infinite possibilities for events of different sizes, levels of grandeur or intimacy with plenty of interior and outdoor spaces. The ranch is designed to be the canvas for your unique creation and ideas.

“Working with Foxen Canyon Ranch was the best decision we made, hands down. They are professional, courteous, their attention to detail is unmatched and their venue is sparkling clean and a dream space to design and plan a wedding in. They made it easy for vendor load in and load out. The venue has a lot of added bonuses like gas fire pits with seating, Edison lights over their built in bar with a bar back that could easily accommodate 4 or more bartenders for a large wedding. The outdoor space had string lights and up lights around the patio. The finished bar is a complete blank space to dream up the perfect reception in and the grounds allow for social distancing or events and ceremonies to be 100% outside. Their landscaping is neutral and allowed the floral designer to incorporate any color with ease. The caterer loved the private driveway and space they created for them to pull into and unload the food and beverage. We didn't encounter any long haul fees, which we have seen with other venues. They are tucked away and allow for a completely private event. If you are looking for a garden, ranch, industrial vibe- Foxen Canyon Ranch is a hidden gem amongst wedding venues in Santa Ynez. We highly recommend them!”
