Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust

Thousands of visitors have enjoyed an experience at Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust through a hike, event or field trip. This year has been especially tough to engage the community in events and field trips, however, we have continued to strive to give back to the community through offering up private hikes. We have enjoyed watching all ages come and engage in the beauty of Ventura's hillsides in a unique and intimate setting. #GivingTuesday This day is designed to focu...s on generosity, citizen engagement and support for communities and nonprofits around the world. Rancho Ventura Conservation Trust has been working hard on the engineering and construction of our Petting Farm to facilitate our community field trip program. Your donations this #GivingTuesday will go directly towards helping this project become a reality. Thank you for your continued support and dedication to preserving and conserving Ventura's hillsides.
