ABOUT THE CAUSE

North East Trees is a 30+-year-old community-based, non-profit organization that helps heal environmental injustice through urban forestry, nature-based design-build, habitat restoration, and workforce development.

We work in underinvested communities in the county and city of Los Angeles —particularly in Northeast, East, and South Los Angeles - to build climate resiliency through stewardship, planting, design, and community engagement.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
In the heart of North East Los Angeles, nestled within the verdant expanse of Ascot Hills Park, lies a beacon of ecological hope and restoration: the Hyper-local Native Plants Nursery, championed by North East Trees (NET). This nursery isn't just a repository of flora; it represents a deep-seated commitment to reviving the natural world and fostering connections with the environment and within our community. Its roots are steeped in history, standing on a site once earmarked for public recreation in the 1930s Olmsted Plan and later transformed into the Legion Ascot Speedway. Despite these transformations, its original purpose was lost to time until the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power repurposed the land. Today, this space embodies our collective mission to "bring nature back" and serves as a vital educational and ecological hub.

Through partnerships with Crews For A Cause friends, we hope to create a two—to three-minute evergreen story about the multi-generational summer 2024 nature-based educational programming. This summer theme is “belonging to nature and each other.”

DEADLINE IS FLEXIBLE
We are looking for a video within the next 3-4 months.
