NORTH VALLEYHEART RIVERWALK PROJECT


It’s official!

The North Valleyheart Riverwalk (Greenway) project is now a Los Angeles County project!

Not only is the county committed to implement the project, The Village Gardeners’ proposal for a beautiful and accessible native plant filled greenway, along the Los Angeles River, is their entry in the California River Parkways,  Proposition 84 grant competition.

Our project has been moved to the head of the line of LA County’s, LA River projects!



Special thanks to LA County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, his staff and LA County's Dept of Public Works for their generous support and hard work!

City Supplies New Trash Cans for Village Gardeners' Valleyheart Riverwalk Greenway


The City of Los Angeles, through its Adopt-A-Basket program, has supplied new trash cans for the Valleyheart Riverwalk Greenway. To further the improvement, The Village Gardeners recently purchased  and installed self-closing lids, which was made possible through the support and generosity of the community.

Currently, The Village Gardeners services 11-trash cans along the Los Angeles River on a weekly basis.
