Urban Community Indigenous Food Forests?

I‘ve been slowly incorporating some permaculture food forest principles in my local community garden in St. Louis. I’m going to be moving to Los Angeles soon, and I wanted to get a head start on getting connected to anyone is this space.

At first I was discouraged about the move because most of the food forest things I see online seem to be pretty rural and in a different growing zone. But then I started looking into indigenous plants to the region, and some of the resources that the city has for starting a community garden, and now I’m thinking it’s not completely impossible to put everything together.

Does anyone know about any “apartment-steading” organizations in LA or elsewhere?
