Trees. Trees are the best thing. I've always been a huge tree nerd and I get super excited about the opportunity to talk with other tree nerds. Jon Motsinger is the Department Head of Central Texas Operations with the Texas A&M Forest Service and one of the most knowledgable arborists I've had the plasure of knowing. He's witty, funny, and really cares about trees and the environment. Join us as we chat about trees in the envrionment, the effects they have on human health, how important education and voting are, and about the Big Tree Registry. Tree folks are the most passionate plant people you could meet and you're really going to love this episode! Also, we have a new partner as of this week! Go look up Local LBK if you're a Lubbock-dwelling human and find out how you can support the community and get some rad discounts while you're at it!
