The famous Guernsey cows are resting in the shade in their paddock at the Adohr Milk Farm. Farm buildings can be seen in the distance, against a road lined with Cyprus trees.The Spanish land grant that made up Rancho Malibu was split into three parcels in 1905 after the death of Frederick Hastings Rindge. In 1916 Rindge's daughter Rhoda and her husband Merritt Adamson Sr. established a dairy farm named Adohr (Rhoda spelled backward) located at 18000 Ventura Blvd. in Tarzana. The farm was famous for breeding Guernsey cattle. Land was slowly sold during the depression and in 1948 the remaining 500 acres were sold to developers when the dairy farm moved to Camarillo. The Camarillo farm was sold for the Westview Park subdivision in 1969. Only the milkmaid statue remains, stored in a Tulare County processing plant.
