TreeWatch Coconut Grove

TreeWatch Coconut Grove Tree Advocacy / Promoting and Saving Urban Tree Canopy We are organized as a clearing house so that area residents can report illegal tree cuttings through us.

TreeWatch is an award-winning tree advocacy group founded Coconut Grove by Liliana Dones and Santiago Villegas in 2005. TreeWatch files appeals to save trees, especially those in the public right of way, which have intended for removal by the City our of its own desire or art the request of individual and organizations. We believe trees should have a standing. We believe trees should not be remove

d as a result of urban "redecoration" if they are not an immediate danger to passersby. We believe in responsible architecture and development that respects trees. We encourage our city residents and officials to not take our trees for granted, and to help save and protect them, and thus grow our canopy.

Today I am saddened and heartbroken. My dear friend That Tree was brutalized and blown down by the winds of a derecho that passed through southwestern Wisconsin. I never imagined in my lifetime that I would lose my dear friend, but I have. While the storm was still raging, I stood there leaning with my head against her crumpled form, crying, picturing her majestic form standing as she always has, stately against the far horizon. This is one of the last photos I made of her in late June. Life challenges and health issues have kept me from my frequent visits to my forest friend. On my last few visits, I did not even make pictures but instead, enjoyed the contemplative nature of her quiet company. I sat beneath her branches, observed her form against sunset skies, and always hugged her savoring the unique pattern of her bark by resting my hands on her textured trunk before departing with a last appreciative gaze. I will miss her terribly.

Two British men were sentenced to more than four years in prison on Tuesday for cutting down one of the most famous trees in England, the Sycamore Gap Tree.

The men were found guilty in May of what a judge called a "deliberate and mindless" act of felling the tree as an apparent joke. The tree stood for nearly 200 years in a picturesque valley in northern England, adjacent to the remnants of Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
