VALUED CUSTOMERS & FRIENDS+

We are devastated for our beloved city. Every Angeleno. Every home. Every trail and butterfly. We know you are too.

We have cried and grieved with those we’ve been able to reach. We know some of you may be evacuated or experiencing loss. If you are, please stop reading. Let someone hug you. Know our arms are around you too.

We feel a responsibility to speak directly to those of you who are still safe. Still housed. Still in community. Now is a time for action. Let’s do something.

With love,

Cassy and Kirk Aoyagi
and
The FormLA Team

The fight is not over. Here are some ways we need to dig in this weekend.
 
 

Cassy Aoyagi: This lull in the Santa Anas is a critical opportunity. If you are safe and your property is free from harm, please take fire defensive actions around your home this weekend.

Each step you take will protect your neighbors and the LA community too. Take Action Now
 
 
 

Oscar Ortega and JT Wilkinson: Landscapers have an outsized impact on LA’s fire preparedness and resilience. Every one of us will be needed to repair LA. Right now, we are prohibited from taking action in some places. Here is what we can do. Read More

Are we missing or misunderstanding something? This is a work in progress – let us know! We want to build an accurate resource.

Even the worst heartbreaks heal. It starts earlier than you might think.

Isara Ongwiseth: As Angelenos fill fire stations and shelters to capacity with our love, we see those who have lost the most begin to look up – even forward. The same is true of our native gardens and wild spaces. Take hope. Expect Resilience

BLOOMING NOW+

Lupine are not Blooming Now.

Lupine are a symbol of LA’s post fire resilience – they filled mountaintops and canyons post Woolsey. They are blooming now in our broken hearts.
 
 

TEAM UPDATE+

We love you LA!
 

 

We are in awe of you. Angelenos do not need to look for the helpers. They are every one of us and everywhere we look. We have never been so heartbroken nor so inspired.
 
 

This beautiful team. Although most of us live in fire-impacted areas, we are all safe and housed. Thank you to all of those who checked in on us.
