Join OVLC for our second annual Rewild Ojai Native Garden Tour, featuring 16 superb native plant gardens across the Ojai Valley. From formal gardens to wildflower meadows, see what your neighbors are planting and get inspired!

Protect your pup on the trails—sign up now for rattlesnake avoidance training, May 16–18. This essential training teaches dogs to recognize and avoid rattlesnakes, which are active year-round in Ojai. Don’t wait—secure your spot today!

As the valley’s land trust, OVLC embraces our role in protecting and restoring the natural landscapes that make the Ojai Valley a special place to live, work, and play.

Whether you are seeking epic views, wonderful wetlands, the perfect birding spot, or a quiet respite from daily life, our preserves offer visitors plenty of opportunity to connect with nature and explore the real Ojai.

Make an impact with a hands-on experience that nature will appreciate. Explore our volunteer opportunities!

OVLC has decades of experience in habitat restoration. By removing invasive plants (like Arundo) and planting native species, OVLC plans to restore our watershed and reconnect our community to our creeks and river.
