This advisory committee to the Coronado City Council and city staff works to maintain, improve, renew and protect the urban forest in public rights of way, and shares information with the public to enhance appreciation of trees, promote proper tree care and “We always have an inventory binder that we bring to the Flower Show that lists every street tree by address,” said committee chair Shannon Player, “so residents can look up their address and learn exactly what species their street tree is. We also have tree health and tree care information including guidelines for pruning.” The committee also supplies information on the rules that govern public right of ways.

Retired fire captain Jody Rogers is a native San Diegan who grew up in Point Loma and has always enjoyed gardening. A few years ago when he trimmed his over-the-rooftop plumeria, he didn’t know what to do with all the cuttings. “So I started potting them up,” he said, using his own organic compost and visiting farmers markets. His plumerias are the celadine variety – “That’s the most fragrant variety, white with a yellow center, the ones the make Hawaiian leis out of,” he said. His booth will sell both his plumerias and his organic compost that is PH balanced and filled with earthworms.
