Canyon Ranch, the pioneering company that pioneered integrative wellness, began with the pursuit of wellness by a single man, long before the term "wellness" became common use. Since then, that goal has inspired a business, but more importantly, it has encouraged innumerable individuals to pursue their own individual conceptions of what constitutes wellness. Canyon Ranch guides your lifetime well-being down a road of proven answers with its four immersive destinations and integrated team of professionals. Mel Zuckerman took the key decision to change his sedentary lifestyle in 1978, long before the wellness industry became a multi-trillion dollar industry. This decision was made in 1978. He understood after two weeks of living a healthy lifestyle that he had permanently changed his life, and he wanted to assist others in making the same change. This objective was initiated in 1979 when the first Canyon Ranch location, located near Tucson, Arizona, initially welcomed guests. This pioneering wellness resort was the first of its type to use an integrative approach, drawing on holistic methods, therapies, and evidence from both western and eastern traditions to address the well-being of the mind, body, and spirit.

The Los Altos History Museum occupies a unique corner of Los Altos, California — one of the few remaining apricot orchards in the Santa Clara Valley. Opened in 2001 on a publicly accessible campus at 51 S. San Antonio Road, the museum's three-level, 8,200-square-foot main building was constructed entirely with private donations before ownership transferred to the City of Los Altos in 2002. The museum campus encompasses the main building, which houses rotating and permanent exhibitions, and the J. Gilbert Smith House — a restored 1905 farmhouse set across a landscaped courtyard. Gardens and grounds connect the historic structures and remain open to the public even when the buildings are closed. For private events, the museum offers both indoor and outdoor rental spaces: the garden setting among heritage oak trees and the remaining apricot orchard, and the main gallery inside the period building. The venue accommodates weddings, special occasions, corporate gatherings, and nonprofit functions, with event packages that include access to kitchen facilities and a preferred list of caterers. Rental inquiries are handled through the dedicated events team.
