KSFO presented a "best of" broadcast for this mornings' weekly garden show, Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem.  From 2014, we are presenting two Bob Tanem Interviews, both about trees; this continues a theme started last week.

First, Bob Tanem interviews Nick Crawford from Davey Tree company.  A Certified Arborist, Nick answers Bobs' questions and those of callers to the show.  In the second interview, Bob talks to tree-specialist attorney at law Barri Kaplan Bonaparte.  Among the subjects -- as pertinent today's ever -- discussed was, what options do you have when friendly negotiation about tree issues in the neighborhood break down.  Barri is still practicing law in 2026, and of course we have someone on from Davey Tree most every year.

Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem is the Bay Area's premiere radio talk show about organic gardening, heard live exclusively on 810 KSFO (and on KSFO.com) on Sundays at 9:00 Pacific time, and on this podcast.  The podcast edition gets scrubbed of all music and most advertising in accordance with industry practice.

Our guest on Bob Tanem In The Garden with Edie Tanem this morning was perennial favorite Cal Agrifolia from the Davey Tree Company.  Davey is an employee-owned certified tree care company with local offices all around the Bay, and Cal is one of those employees: a "sales arborist," Cal is one of the guys that could be dispatched to your property to diagnose your tree issues, and prescribe one of several possible remedies.  Many trees can be saved even when in trouble, and when necessary of course trees can be removed.  We discussed many aspects, including local pest control issues such as the recently newsworthy Glassy Winged Sharp Shooter, and we took calls from our radio audience.

This podcast edition of the show is a repeat of the original broadcast, minus all the music and most of the advertising.
