A Growing Passion

Urban forests and trees are featured as one of six episodes in “A Growing Passion” series on KPBS—and watching it will remind you of why you love and/or work with trees! The program has stories about local benefits and opportunities, issues and conflicts, community support and successes, and how trees matter in our lives. These stories highlight Save Our Peninsula Trees and tree advocacy in Ocean Beach; tree watering with Tree San Diego and Girl Scouts; neighborhood values of trees with Councilmember David Alvarez and others; and TreePeople in Los Angeles. The series is produced by gardening expert Nan Sterman, producer Marianne Gerdes, and their team, and the urban forestry episode is archived at http://agrowingpassion.com/episode-505-urban-forests-trees-plants-city/
