Special Guest Musician: Nico Rhodes
Patrick’s presentation will include an explanation of urban forestry and the benefits of a healthy urban forest, followed by an overview of the results of a recently conducted Urban Forestry Audit and Benchmarking Study. There should be some time for Q+A.
As the Urban Forestry Coordinator for the City of Nanaimo, I’ve worked for the horticultural department since 2007. I am an ITA Red Seal Landscape Horticulturist, an Organic Master Gardener, an ISA Certified Arborist, a Qualified Tree Risk Assessor, a Qualified Landscape Appraiser, and an ISA Certified Arborist Municipal Specialist. My role, currently in Parks Operations, allows me to focus more on Public tree management.
Living on Vancouver Island has awakened a passion for trees, plants and the planet. I have the good fortune of living on a quiet homestead with my wonderful family.
