About this listen

As an organization, we plant Nebraska for healthy people, vibrant communities and a resilient environment. We do this through tree planting, garden making, education and community building. We talk about all things gardening, habitat and people—because gardening can only be truly sustainable when planned with people in mind. As a staff, we have decades of experience in tree planting, community forestry, gardening, and community building. We hope to share that knowledge so you can become the gardener you want to be and to help you advocate for trees and native plants in your own community.Copyright 2026 PlantNebraska Podcast Biological Sciences Science
