FoLAR 2024 Annual Report

Program & Partner Highlights

This year, FoLAR launched our first ever organizational membership program — 12-month blend of traditional event sponsor recognition and employee engagement opportunities on the LA River. Members meet their ESG goals while deeply engaging with the River. To become a member, contact us at sponsorships@folar.org.

FoLAR continued its collaboration with Sand County Environmental using “Phyto (plants) Myco (mycelium) Remediation” to restore the contaminated brownfield at Taylor Yard along the LA River. This year included asphalt removal and using native plants, trees, and fungi to draw pollutants out of the soil and bring this area back to life.

Thank you Smog City Brewing Co. for creating the People to the River IPA through 1% For The Planet. Inspired by the LA River’s native vegetation, their FoLAR IPA was a smash hit resulting in a $5K donation — Sláinte Mhath!

FoLAR launched our periodic Members LA River Field Trips. Individual and organizational members get an inside look at our Source to Sea field trips with a guided nature walk and macro- invertebrate sampling activity.
