Embracing Our Local Community 

Our conservation center is at the heart of the small, tightly knit, town of Ojai, CA. Since 1917, Ojai has hosted a yearly Ojai Day featuring local vendors, non profits, and artists. The TC was happy to host yet another booth at Ojai Day where we had the opportunity to engage with the community and inspire care for turtle conservation.

Adding a touch of fun, we organized a turtle scavenger hunt, which captivated families and children, offering an enjoyable and educational way to learn about turtles. The positive response from the community was encouraging, and we are eager to channel this momentum into our ongoing mission of turtle and tortoise conservation. Thanks to all who joined us, and stay tuned for more updates on our upcoming initiatives.
