About this listen

In this episode, Michelle and Emily ask listeners to consider the presence and importance of plants in the region. Wandering among cottonwoods, willows, cholla, ponderosa forests, and even the grocery store, the hosts offer stories of the ways in which plants are present in our daily lives and have long altered the actions of human beings historically. They welcome Boise State University historian John Bieterand University of Arizona history major Gabby Vanover both of whom explain how trees provide vital information about the past that we can use to think about the future. Even if you don't have a green thumb (like Emily), you will appreciate all the power plants exert now and in the past.
