We at the Friends of the Vero Beach Dog Park have been beautifying the area west and north of Bob Summers Baseball Field for the last 9 months. We have planted 69 trees included are Cabbage Palms, Southern Magnolias, Japanese Blueberries, Royal Poincianas, Green Button Woods, Live Oaks, Orange Geigers, Cassias, Weeping Podacarpous, and Black Olives in the past nine months.
I am curious to learn more about Dr. Humiston.
Kark? I knew a Karl Zimmerman. Is Kark a relation?
