VALUED CUSTOMERS & FRIENDS+

We vote in all kinds of ways. Of course, by mail and at the polls. We also vote for this community every time we smile at a neighbor, visit a business in a different neighborhood, and most certainly when we plant trees and grow food together.

We are hopeful wherever you find yourself in the coming month, it is somewhere you find plenty of fellow Angelenos voting for the best possible version of LA.

Sincerely,
Cassy and Kirk Aoyagi

BLOOMING NOW+

While LA native trees tend to keep their leaves in fall, we are far from bereft of fall color.

Desert Globemallow blooms much of the year but tends to catch the eye most in fall, as do butter-yellow Indian Mallow Blooms.

The silver foliage of Brittlebush fills with golden-yellow blooms.

See more October Blooms.
