Beau Brodbeck - Auburn Extension Specialist focusing on Urban Forests

<p>"Urban forest" sounds like an oxymoron unless you're Beau Brodbeck. Beau teaches the finer points of the how, when, where, and why of trees in urban landscapes. I was introduced to him through a listener who had just been in one of his seminars and emailed me to say "You gotta have him on" and when I chatted with him I knew she was right. It's amazing how trees influence the value of commerical property, and how we repeatedly do the wrong things when trying to enhance property by planting trees. And how we often plant them in such a way that their failue is all but assured. </p> <p>Thanks to show sponsors:</p> <p><a href="https://acre.culverhouse.ua.edu">Alabama Center for Real Estate</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.e3pests.com">E3 Termite and Pest Control</a></p> <p><a href="https://allisonhorner.com">Allison Horner - State Farm Agent</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.tworld.com/agent/treylangus/">Trey Langus - Transworld Business Advisors</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.budbusch.com">Bud-Busch Distribution</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.sandiferwealth.com">Sandifer Wealth Management</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.burr.com">Burr & Forman</a></p> <p><a href="https://personsservices.com">Persons Services Corps</a></p> <p><a href="https://roylewisconstruction.com">Roy Lewis Construction</a></p>
