Laura and Mike interviewed our guest, Garth Davis of the Spokane Conservation Direct about Ponderosa Pine forests. Garth described Ponderosa pine, including the makeup of the native ponderosa pine forest and its fire cycle. He discussed potential impacts from the pine bark beetle, drought and non-native plants.  He described what the Conservation District offers landowners, including wildfire resilience and thinning trees.  We did three station ID’s, starting with one at 12:01 PM.
