About the Business

Welcome to Van Eck Old Growth Redwood, a cherished family-owned business nestled in the heart of Aptos, California. Located at 505 Aptos Creek Road, our legacy is deeply intertwined with the rich history of the area. Our roots trace back to the illustrious Mangels Ranch, once part of a sprawling 550-acre estate, home to generations of the Mangels, Tillmann, and van Eck families.

Our story begins with Claus Mangels, an early pioneer whose vision and partnership with Claus Spreckels, the renowned "Sugar King," shaped the community we love today. This land has witnessed the joys of family gatherings, the laughter of children playing, and the timeless beauty of nature. It is here that Agnes Reed, the great-granddaughter of Claus Mangels, spent her summers, creating cherished memories that have been passed down through generations.

Van Eck Old Growth Redwood stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the van Eck family. Agnes Reed's father, Baron Jan Carel van Panthaleon van Eck, a notable figure in the oil industry, and her mother, Agnes Tillmann van Eck, have left an indelible mark on this land. Today, the majestic old-growth redwood trees are a living tribute to their memory, with one tree dedicated in their honor still standing tall.

Our business is more than just a tribute to the past; it is a celebration of the natural beauty and profound history that define Aptos. We invite you to explore the Van Eck Grove, Tillmann Grove, and other landmarks named after our family, each telling a story of love, resilience, and community.

Whether you're a local resident or a visitor seeking to connect with the rich tapestry of Aptos history, we welcome you to experience the serenity and grandeur of Van Eck Old Growth Redwood. Discover the legacy, embrace the tranquility, and be inspired by the stories of those who came before us. Join us in preserving this remarkable heritage for future generations to cherish.

"A freaking huge tree. Walking distance from Aptos village. Worth a visit but also go check the other ones out, too, while you’re here."
