In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with project manager Jamie Stevens about the long-awaited completion of Dover's waterfront development, including Nebi Park, the rebuilt River Street, Seaport Way, and Payne Street. Three years after the June 2023 groundbreaking, the three-acre park is nearing the finish line ahead of a ribbon cutting on July 14. Stevens walks through the final push of work: detailed concrete paver areas around the pavilion, the Makem Bridge approach, and the flagpole overlook; ornamental fencing; and installation of park benches, including three swing benches out on the point. He notes the restoration of the shoreline to its original point. Plantings are roughly 90 percent complete, with final street trees and paving near Building F at 40 River St. held back until the private developer finishes construction. Stevens explains the project's stormwater management systems, which filter sediment and pollution before water reaches the river, and describes street and park elements designed to blend with downtown and Silver Street while introducing newer features like modular platform benches. He and Parker emphasize how early decisions, especially pre-ordering benches, pavers, and trees in the project's infancy, helped avoid cost overruns and keep the project under budget. Public art includes the "River Roots" sculpture and three rotating display bases along the Riverwalk. The paddle sports dock and a kayak and canoe rental vendor will be ready shortly after the park opens following the July 4th holiday.In This Week in Dover History, we look back at June 1855, when Dover took the pivotal step of transitioning from a town to a city. After town meetings grew unwieldy in the busy, industrial community, voters narrowly approved a city charter by just 44 votes.

In this episode, I this episoe I discuss tree plantings. The philosophy behind if they're worht it? If the traditional approach of spray, burn, spray, plant 600 trees, and tubing is the most reliable approach or the approach of grass selective only herbicides with 1000 trees per acre with no tree tubes is more effective ecspcially as early successional habitat. I go into detail of my own tree planting for the family farm consisting of 5.5 acres of CRP with 622 trees per acres totalling up to 3421 trees total with 275 tree tubes. Tree plantings are nostalgic for conservationists and land owners alike, but the prep work that goes into a planting is no easy undertaking.

The panel explored the intersection of natural and man-made materials in landscape design, highlighting the balance between aesthetic, sustainability, and functional concerns. Participants discussed how interior and landscape designers borrow nature to create cohesive environments, including outdoor “rooms” and hardscape features softened with plantings. Material selection — stone, metal, glass, composite decking, and synthetic turf — was debated, with attention to local sourcing, durability, environmental impact, and client expectations. The panel also emphasized the sensory experience of landscapes, touching on sight, sound, smell, and taste, and how design can evoke memory and emotion. Sustainability, fire safety, maintenance, and longevity were recurring themes, particularly in the adoption of synthetic materials that mimic natural ones while reducing environmental or upkeep costs. Borrowed landscape: Using surrounding natural colors and textures to inform material choices in hardscape design. Softening hardscape: Plantings and layered design to maintain depth without overwhelming the property. Context-appropriate material selection: Stone, metal, glass, gravel, and concrete chosen according to environment, use, and climate. Trend toward natural imperfection: Broken edges, less precision, biophilic design responding to a highly digital, precise world. Sustainability tensions: Balancing natural and synthetic materials for longevity, cost, and environmental impact. Synthetic decking and recycled composites: TimberTech and similar products for durability, low maintenance, and fire safety. Artificial turf considerations: High-use areas, water savings, lifespan, recycling challenges. Sensory-driven design: Sight, sound, smell, and taste incorporated into landscapes for holistic human experiences. Childhood memory and emotional recall: Design that evokes personal sensory memory for users. Fire and climate constraints: Materials must meet modern safety and insurance standards.

Hey everyone, it's Natalie and I am thrilled to bring you today my conversation with my neighbor Catherine Coverdale who is a partner biologist with the Xerces Society and NRCS. We talk about programs that NRCS and Xerces do for pollinator plantings and weather stations. And we talk about her research for her masters, which was on blueberries and spotted wing drosophila, which was cool because when I talked with Bernice about honeyberries, she was discussing the spotted wing drosophila. So it was neat to get to the biology of SWD with Catherine. I hope you enjoy our conversation and maybe even take advantage of some of these programs that are out there to help farmers with some of these ecological practices to encourage native pollinators and the like.

The Cabernet Sauvignon refresh was episode 535, so I thought that on the heels of that it was time to do a refresh Cab Sauv's parents. This week is the Cabernet Franc refresh and next week will be Sauvignon Blanc, so you can have the full picture of the parents and the offspring. Cabernet Franc is an underrated grape and things seem to be changing rapidly with it these days. In the past, it has often been used purely as a blending grape, except in the Loire Valley, but today it's taking center stage. Producers and wine drinkers have realized that if the best wines of Château Cheval Blanc on the Right Bank of Bordeaux, have a higher proportion of Cabernet Franc, maybe there is something to this grape that should be explored. Although Cab Franc still doesn't have widespread popular acclaim, it is extremely important in the wine world. Today –it grows everywhere from France, Italy, the United States, Chile, Argentina, Canada, Hungary, Washington State, Croatia, Israel, South Africa, Turkey, Slovenia, Uruguay, and more. Plantings are growing and I see a bigger future for this grape. In this show I cover: The origins and DNA of the grape Cab Franc in the vineyard Aromas and flavors Regions: France: Loire, Bordeaux, Southwest France Italy: Veneto, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Bolgheri Hungary: Villány Canada United States: Finger Lakes, Long Island, Virginia, and a little bit on Napa, Sonoma, and Washington South America: Argentina, Chile I cover food pairings and serving temperatures too.

Alexandra Climent is a rainforest conservationist, sculptural artist, and the founder of Endangered Rainforest Rescue, a women and Indigenous-led nonprofit organization working to restore biodiversity by planting endangered tree species and protecting indigenous land in the Darién Gap of Panamá. Alexandra has led expeditions for several years into this unexplored rainforest where she and her team are working to reforest an essential corridor for the endangered jaguar. The main goal is to use endangered tree species as the building blocks for habitat restoration in deforested areas, reconnecting them to primary forests. The Darién Gap stands as a vital ecological corridor connecting the Americas, holding immense importance in safeguarding the global ecosystem. The work of Alexandra's organization is not only crucial at a local scale but also pivotal for worldwide climate mitigation efforts.Alexandra's artistic practice involves utilizing materials gathered from fallen trees in the rainforest that she collected over several years, working with some of the most dense and beautiful wood in the world. The aim of her work is to showcase the rainforest's beauty and highlight its urgent need for protection.She has published articles about her work, most recently in "The World Sensorium, Plantings," where she emphasizes the importance of protecting the Darien Gap and its crucial role in preserving indigenous lands.This week, Mark and Alexandra talk about work on the ground, bringing the work to the world and doing it with a lot of curiosity and wonder.Save What You Love with Mark Titus:Produced: Emilie FirnEdited: Patrick TrollMusic: Whiskey ClassInstagram: @savewhatyoulovepodcastWebsite: savewhatyoulove.evaswild.comSupport wild salmon at evaswild.com

The UF/IFAS Extension County Office is pleased to announce that planting a fall garden in September will kick off our new “Plantings of the Month” series. The new series replaces the previous “Plant of the Month” and will include timely topics for your gardens. As the summer heat begins to wane, Northeast Florida gardeners have a unique opportunity to start their fall gardens. The cooler temperatures and reduced humidity create ideal conditions for growing a variety of cool-season crops, such as lettuce, onions, mustard greens and strawberries. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a beginner, you can take full advantage of our unique growing conditions and enjoy a bountiful fall and winter harvest. Check the Plantings of the Month website for information on planting, harvesting and more. Listen to the Extension Cord Podcast to get further insights on the Plantings of the Month. "Starting a fall garden cultivates more than just plants; it nurtures resilience, foresight, and the promise of a fruitful harvest well into the cooler months," said County Commission Chair Mary Alford. The Plantings of the Month program is a collaborative effort between Alachua County Board of County Commissioners, UF/IFAS Extension Alachua County, Alachua County Master Gardener volunteers, Alachua County Public Library, Grow Hub and Working Food.

The Hunter Valley is the OG -- the first place where Australian grape growing took place. For 200 years there has been continuous winegrowing and winemaking among the rolling hills and green valleys, which are peppered with iconic wineries, many of which have been around for more than 100 years. Although other types of wines are made, the Hunter has one crown jewel -- Semillon. In this show I give detail on the history, background and terroir of the Hunter before discussing the Semillon and why it is so special and is truly a GREAT!!I give an overview of the Hunter Valley, which is one of Australia's most popular wine destinations. It is just over a two hours' drive north from Sydney in New South Wales – about 160 km/100 mi north. It is very near UNESCO World Heritage National Parks, which are popular tourist destinations.With its low latitude (32°S), viticulture would not be possible without some mitigating factors The Hunter Valley is SMALL - it's 2% of Australian vineyard area. The region focuses on quality, premium wines, not bulkPlantings are 47% red (mostly Shiraz), 53% white (mostly Chardonnay and Semillon, with Verdelho of Portugal. This white-heavy mix is unusual for Australia! The I discuss the subtropical climate, the varied land and what works best for Semillon, and the GIsI spend the rest of the time talking about the alchemy involved in making a living wine like Hunter Valley Semillon -- truly one of "the greats" of the wine world! _______________________________________________________________________Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.
