The Kellogg Park Story

When you arrive at Kellogg Park in Ventura, California, you’re greeted with a vibrant scene that’s a far cry from what you would have seen before 2018. Back then, this space was nothing more than a vacant lot surrounded by an unwelcoming chain-link fence. Today, however, Kellogg Park tells a different, far more inspiring story.

The park now echoes with the joyful sounds of children playing on the playground, parents enjoying a leisurely stroll along the walking path, and families gathering around picnic tables. It’s a place where everyone can connect with nature, a space designed to foster healthy, inclusive, and thriving communities.

This transformation was made possible through partnership with the City of Ventura and the Westside neighborhood. Together, we turned an unused lot into a dynamic park that meets the needs of this multi-generational community. With direct input from residents, the park was designed to include a fitness area, a new playground, picnic areas, a walking path, an amphitheater, and a natural water play area. Native plantings, a large community garden, and a pebble mosaic further enhance the park, reflecting the beauty and vibrancy of the local culture.

Today, Kellogg Park buzzes with life and activity, serving 5,461 people within a 10-minute walk. It’s a place where more people can connect with nature—now and for generations to come.
