In our first episode on the founding fathers of American forestry we cover Carl Schenck. A forgotten German forester who proposed an alternative vision of American forestry focused on private ownership rather than the state. Which vision wins out? Do the boys get called out by a German from 200 years in the past? Is Gifford Pinchot a petty bitch? Tune in to find out! Have a question or a topic you&#39;d like us to cover?

SeedPod is a podcast about the natural world. We are two foresters and a wildlife biologist, trying to make sense of all things natural resources for the masses. We'll cover topics as broad as "What is a forest?" and as specific as "Here's the history of Some Guy You've Never Heard Of" because we think it's interesting, and you should too.
