Come join us and Ojai Valley Land Conservancy by volunteering your time to give back to the valley and take care of our natural spaces. Ojai Valley Land Conservancy will lead us through some activities for restoring and caring for the land.  

A couple times a year we team up with Ojai Valley Land Conservancy for a volunteer day that caters to a younger age group as well as adults. The land stewards at OVLC teach us about native plants, responsible recreation and stewardship practices that we can use out in our everyday lives. We all learn so much each time!
