This summer, we gave tours of our Moving Mountains project at Un-development 1, a former tow yard beside the LA River. We pulled up the tarmac and replaced it with floodplain soil. Soon dormant seeds sprouted and their roots pulled up the residual contaminants, remediating the land. Learn more here!

Every Friday, walk through a living floodplain on the bank of the LA River on our "Moving Mountains" tour. Bio-remediation and inoculation with Topanga Canyon landslide soil transformed this former tow yard into a refuge, showing what's possible with ecological repair. Sign up here! bit.ly/3IkzNuY
