Ojai Valley Land Conservancy

The Ojai Valley Land Conservancy is a non-profit organization based in Ojai, California. The organization employs 17 people and generates around $2.5 million in annual revenue. The Ojai Valley Land Conservancy is dedicated to safeguarding the natural resources of the Ojai Valley, including open space, scenic beauty, wildlife habitats, and watershed areas. They achieve this by managing approximately 2,000 acres of land, which is equivalent to two-thirds the size of the city of Ojai. The organization offers public access to this land, which includes over 4.5 miles of the Ventura River, and maintains numerous trails for various recreational activities. The organization works collaboratively with landowners to permanently protect open space within the Ojai Valley. They achieve this through land acquisition and land preservation agreements, ensuring the preservation of these valuable resources for future generations. The Ojai Valley Land Conservancy actively engages with the community, hosting educational programs and guided tours for visitors, hikers, equestrians, and school children.
