OLD MILL FOUNDATION Information

The Old Mill Foundation was formed in 1995, as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with its sole purpose to maintain, preserve and operate The Old Mill. Also know as El Molino Viejo, the Mill was completed about 1816 as a gristmill for Mission San Gabriel. Today, the historic adobe building stands as a testament to the legacy of the California missions and the Spanish presence in early California. The original adobe building sits amongst almost two acres of gardens, lovingly tended by the Diggers Garden Club. As a part of that mission, the Foundation develops and creates many artistic, educational and community programs at The Old Mill.
