ABOUT US

For nearly a decade Lila and Eleanor have been partners in collaboration. With the support of many mentors and gardens along the way, L+E learned how to tend land in a city – caring for life in the often harsh urban landscape of Los Angeles. In 2019, Plant Friends was born out of a shared passion for tending land and of course, friendship.

We partake in every aspect of the work, ranging from consults and design to planting and maintenance. We do our best to work with the land rather than against it, coming from a place of love and compassion for the earth.

We offer comprehensive consultations, garden and orchard landscape designs, and specialized services for fruit trees and roses. As guests on Gabrielino-Tongva land, we focus on restoring native plant communities, soil health, herbal medicine, and resourceful farming practices.
