Our Story

The Citrus Grove
Nestled within the historic Pacific Community Center property, The Citrus Grove is a timeless space where history, community, and celebration come together. Established in the 1920s, this land has long been a place of faith, learning, and gathering, first as Beulah College, then as Upland College, shaping generations through education and spiritual growth.
Though the schools have since closed, their legacy of faith and fellowship remains. Today, The Citrus Grove continues that tradition, offering a breathtaking setting of century-old trees, lush greenery, and charming historic architecture. Whether exchanging vows under the citrus canopy, celebrating a milestone, or hosting an intimate gathering, our venue blends history with modern elegance for unforgettable experiences.
Steeped in a spirit of faith, family, and community, The Citrus Grove is more than a place—it’s a living story. We invite you to create new memories while honoring the past, becoming part of a legacy cherished for generations to come.
