OUR MISSION:
Sustaining the Beautiful Environment of Pacific Palisades, California 
|
|
Palisades Beautiful is a local non-profit organization with a four-decade history of sustaining the beautiful environment of Pacific Palisades, California. It all started with the planting of Street Trees in 1974 – those trees now number in the hundreds. Then, a sustainability demonstration garden – now called the N/E/X/T/Garden – was founded in 1988 at the top of Temescal Canyon Park. Palisades Beautiful continues to create and support new programs such as the Pali Academy Garden Education (PAGE) program (since 2013), with its soil-to-table curriculum for continuing education students. We also work with other non-profits to create and co-sponsor special programs, such as the WaterWise Workshop (in 2015) – this well-attended event helped the local community to cope with our recent record drought. We invite fellow Palisadians to learn more about Palisades Beautiful and to join us in our efforts to enhance our shared community.

Pacific Palisades is a coastal community in Los Angeles, with about 30,000 residents, occupying the southwest foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains. Its natural environment ranges from rugged chaparral and canyons to high coastal bluffs and wide beaches. Its built environment consists of small residential neighborhoods and shopping/dining enclaves interspersed with schools, parks, and community buildings. The combination of a splendid location and moderate climate, along with a small-town ambiance, makes “the Palisades” a highly desirable place to live. Together, we can make it even better....
