Significance: The Stevens Ranch Complex includes orchards, buildings, and fruit drying equipment that illustrate agricultural development in Santa Clara County in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The early dehydrater and tram tracks on the ranch represented innovations in fruit drying technology when they were installed. The Stevens family were prominent and successful orchardists and operated drying facilities that served nearby farms.
