There is a Place Called Hidden Valley - Perhaps not identical to the depiction of the Hidden Valley we see in current advertisements, but Hidden Valley® ranch dressing debuted at the Hidden Valley Ranch, located outside of Santa Barbara, California, in 1954.

Perhaps not identical to the depiction of the Hidden Valley we see in current advertisements, but Hidden Valley® ranch dressing debuted at the Hidden Valley Ranch, located outside of Santa Barbara, California, in 1954. The ranch guest house, pictured below, became an outdoor getaway for guests to enjoy horseback riding, fishing and hiking. In the evenings, they were treated to a delicious meal, made complete with homemade buttermilk salad dressing prepared fresh daily by the ranch owner. A mail-order business started shortly after guests demanded more of this amazing product, and nowadays you can enjoy the dressing across the country.
