Love the information!

I wasn’t expecting so much information with how’s and why’s and ethics discussions. It was refreshing!
His voice is also nice to listen to. It’s not exactly soothing, but it’s crisp and not twangy.
Finally, I appreciate the directions to videos and other formats of information.

Good with one exception

There were good recommendations for natives but when when trifoliate orange was mentioned I was disappointed. This plant is considered an invasive species.
