See Who Came Home to Chico Charmaine Delmatier
After graduating from Chico
State with
a double major in Music and
Botany,
I went on to complete my graduate work a
t the University of Wyoming. From Wyoming
I became the Texas State Botanist for the U.S. Dept. of the Interior.
Retirement from the federal government freed up my
commitment to other parts of the US.
Now, it's wonderful to be back home. It is incredible to me that the
part of town I grew up in is still the same. That is what I love about Chico; its commitment to
a small town atmosphere, but at the same time promoting its economic growth. I
hope to offer some of my experience and services to the Chico area as a Botanical Consultant and help
sculpt its unique natural landscape. I've enjoyed exploring the new shops in
town, and appreciate the growth and quality of entertainment that has developed
both at the college level and in the community.
