I'm really bummed I didn't see this post before I landscaped and mulched my yard; I bought all my mulch at Home Depot. It's great but I could have got it for free! :\ I found the Theodore Payne Foundation to be a great resource for native California plants, too.

You can also pick them up through the City of LA at various sites. If you want a small amount, it seems like Home Depot is probably the easiest, best quality.

I too have been looking for woodchips to cover my newly installed garden in Santa Monica. Any suggestion of where I can find small amount of wood chips in the area? Your story is wonderful.
