Hoyt Arboretum
Long-time listener, new subscriber here! My sister and I are flying out to Portland for a long weekend this August and plan to visit Hoyt Arboretum! Ever since becoming a fan of the podcast, I have made it a point to visit arboretums as I travel around the U.S. (my favorite so far was Sarah P. Duke Gardens in NC!). We were wondering what your must-see areas or trees are at Hoyt and how you would recommend spending your time there. We are looking into the Hike with Hoyt and Public Tours on August 17/18 as well! Thank you!
Internship ideas?
Hey Casey and Alex! I am in search of an internship in the industree (couldn't help myself) and was wondering if you knew of any cool places that I could look into? I'm in the Seattle area and know that Casey has spent some time up here. It's a graduation requirement, so any suggestions would be awesome!!
What kind of tree bark would be best if you were a mythical character who had bark growing out of your skin?
Hey Casey and Alex, I have an odd question for you guys. I just walked in on my husband playing DnD with his friends. His character apparently has tree bark growing out of his skin, and he asked me what kind of bark it should be. I suggested cedar because it’s decay resistant and strong, or palo santo cause then he’d smell really good. But i wanted to know what you guys would pick and why! If you had to have tree bark psoriasis as they’re calling it - which trees bark would you choose?
Discord or other community?
Hey guys, Have you ever considered having a discord server for the community to discuss trees and other related topics? I think it would be neat to have a place where the community can talk about and share pictures of cool trees and stuff. I hang out on a gardening server but there aren’t a lot of tree folks there. Thanks and love the pod! ❤️🌲
