WinterWonderGrass Festival, and Elephant Revival are teaming up with the Caravan Outpost to produce Caravan to WonderGrass—a unique one-day gathering for the whole family. Taking place in beautiful Ojai, California on Saturday, November 18th, Caravan to WonderGrass promises a simple, sustainable and inspired gathering of music, arts and community with an emphasis on supporting local artisans.

Caravan to WonderGrass will take place at historic Ojai outdoor venue, Libbey Bowl. The Saturday event will take place from 1pm to 8pm, featuring Elephant Revival as well as musical performances from Radio Skies (unplugged), Grant Farm, The Chillz, Wally Ingram, Danny McGaw, Scotty Stoughton and other special guests. Art, food and drink available from local vendors can also be enjoyed throughout the day. Tickets to Caravan to WonderGrass are $39 plus facility fees. Children 12 and under are free.

A limited number of three-day tickets will also be sold as the Deluxe Caravan Ojai Package, which features intimate events hosted by members of Elephant Revival. The Deluxe Caravan Ojai Package includes the “Farm to Fret” dinner on Friday, November 17th, from 5pm-9pm. “Farm to Fret” is a locally inspired farm-to-table experience held at Caravan Outpost, in downtown Ojai, followed by a private performance from Elephant Revival and special guests. The Deluxe Caravan Ojai Package also includes entry to Saturday’s festivities at Libbey Bowl and a “Sunday Morning Send-off” with coffee, tea and pastries on November 19th from 9am-11am at Caravan Outpost, featuring an acoustic set from Bonnie Paine and friends. Limited Deluxe Caravan Packages start at $158.

Over the past six years, Elephant Revival has performed at nearly every WinterWonderGrass Festival, both in Colorado and North Lake Tahoe. Both WinterWonderGrass and Elephant Revival were created with similar values of harmony in mind, and both are excited to come together to deliver this special Caravan to WonderGrass celebration.

“The magic of Ojai is instantly revealed as you drive a few miles east from the wild Pacific. In Native American Chumash language, Ojai means ‘The Nest’, an abundant unspoiled environment, where the locals found use for almost every type of plant and animal available—for food, clothing, medicine and tools. Their environment inspired their art, beliefs, stories, ceremonies and songs. To partner with Elephant Revival, a group that aligns with our ideals of environmental and social activism in a place that espouses connectivity, mindfulness and community, is a true gift!

—WinterWonderGrass founder, Scotty Stoughton

“Scotty' true talent is to curate events that elicit ecstatic outcomes, where both the fans and artists feel supported and considered. To host the gathering in Ojai, CA, in the midst of late autumn, is such a great way to express our love for playing outdoors and celebrating community!”

—Daniel Rodriguez of Elephant Revival

The pristine community of Ojai is nestled in the Central California mountains, surrounded by the Los Padres National Forest, just a few miles from world class surfing, bountiful organic farming, yoga, hiking and biking. Camping is also available at a handful of campgrounds in the area. More information about other activities to do while in town can be found at www.ojaivisitors.com.
