Welcome

Ojai Herbal is the hub for herbal education and herbal events in the beautiful Ojai Valley:
The Ojai Herbal Symposium and Herb Walks with Lanny Kaufer
Programs

Herb Walks with Lanny Kaufer are interpretive walks and hikes with an emphasis on edible and medicinal plants, those classified as “herbs” for their culinary and medicinal properties. Lanny discusses and demonstrate the plants’ indigenous and modern uses for food, home remedies, botanical medicine, survival, landscaping, camping, crafts, ceremony and more. This type of learning cannot be done accurately with books, photos and web images alone. You must engage with the plants in their home environment with all your senses to learn the “language of the plants.”

Lanny offers CEUs for selected events as Continuing Education Provider #1526 under the California Acupuncture Board. Join the Herb Walks email list to receive updates and a monthly schedule of events.

Lanny is the author of “Medicinal Herbs of California: A Field Guide to Common Healing Plants (Falcon Guides, 2021).

The Ojai Herbal Symposium features a diverse faculty of presenters exploring how cultures and individuals are using medicinal herbs for better health and well-being. Herbalists, acupuncturists, naturopaths, medical doctors, chiropractors, health practitioners of all types, and those simply interested in herbs will find our presenters’ content educational and enlightening.

The 4th Ojai Herbal Symposium will return to Krotona Hall on May 31 – June 1, 2025. Join the email list to receive updates and early-bird registration info.
