VALUED CUSTOMERS & FRIENDS+
Thank you Senator Carol Liu, David Brown and Descanso Gardens, and Do Good Bus riders for joining us in a very memorable workshop at the Gardens of the World.
Senator Liu’s office surprised Descanso Gardens and FormLA Landscaping with a certificate for beautifying LA while saving water. This is what we feel compelled to provide to LA through our everyday work, and we were surprised at how emotional receiving this recognition would be. Equally uplifting was seeing vivacious stream of Do Good Bus volunteers join us with boxes of additional tools and big smiles. Thank you for a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
Cassy and Kirk Aoyagi
