Big Bend Borderlands Ministry: Water Conservation, Rancher Collaboration & Creation Care in Marfa Traveling between Alpine and Marfa, Texas, Bishop Michael Hunn of the Diocese of the Rio Grande rides with the Reverend Mike Wallens, who serves Borderlands Ministry and five Big Bend congregations, as they head to Mexico to meet the mayor of Ojinaga and visit two shelters the ministry has supported for years. They discuss environmental work in the Big Bend focused on drought and grasslands, including collaboration with Sul Ross State University's Borderlands Research Institute and interim head Billy Tarrant, who convenes water conservation efforts, encourages measuring ranch water levels to assess aquifers, and promotes land practices that slow runoff, reduce flooding, and recharge groundwater to sustain streams and bird migration habitat. Wallens also describes a Creation Care grant-funded tree-planting project in Marfa's low-income housing, with trees provided and planted with help from an Apache group and maintained by church members and residents. 00:00 Road to Marfa 00:31 Bishop on the Borderlands 01:18 Water and Grasslands 02:28 Ranchers and Aquifers 03:14 Wildlife and Migration 04:13 Restoring Water Flow 05:19 Tree Planting in Marfa 06:25 Closing Reflections

Unlock the secret to transforming your land into a deer magnet and wildlife haven with expert tree planting strategies you need to hear now. Whether you're new to habitat management or looking to refine your approach, this episode reveals the foundational principles that can make or break your success; from timing and soil prep to selecting the right tree species that thrive in your zone. Discover why planting in spring outperforms fall, how to choose trees that attract deer year-round, and the underestimated power of soft mast for consistent food sources. Ryan Haynes of Blue Hill Wildlife Nursery breaks down regional challenges, soil preparation, and the critical distinctions between shade-tolerant and sun-loving trees; demystifying complex concepts so even a beginner can plan with confidence. We break down practical tips on soil testing, protective measures to ensure your investment grows, and how diversifying mast species can provide a continuous, reliable food supply for deer and other wildlife through all seasons. Takeaways Wildlife Planting Value: Planting for wildlife is about creating a diverse ecosystem that sustains deer year-round. Tree Success Factors: Success depends on selection, planting techniques, and protection, not just soil or timing. Challenging Terrain Planting: Improve soil and manage sites to plant in rocky areas, overcoming landscape challenges. Planting Timing: Focus on tree dormancy and readiness rather than specific seasons for planting. Mast Management: Use diverse species with staggered fruiting to maximize mast availability, not year-round production. Grafting Benefits: Propagate high-yield, disease-resistant trees from successful wild sources. Integrated Habitat Management: Combine planting, protection, soil health, and timing for effective habitat management. Species Bloom Timing: Use bloom and ripening schedules to maximize deer forage through diversity. Root Health & Protection: Healthy roots and protection enhance tree development and habitat reliability. Strategic Year-Round Planting: Plant early, mid, and late-season trees to ensure year-round food for deer. Please Show Our Supporters Some Love!!

Habitat Podcast #341 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with Co-Host Andy Hutchens talking to Angelo Giannoni. We discuss: Angelo grew up in Chicago, surrounded by a hunting family with a rich outdoor tradition. He owns 45 acres in Northwest Illinois, focusing on habitat improvement for wildlife. Angelo enrolled his property in CRP and forestry programs for income and habitat enhancement. He actively removes invasive species like honeysuckle to improve the understory of his woods. Angelo has planted 6,000 saplings, creating edge and cover for deer movement on his property. He emphasizes the importance of creating diverse habitats for wildlife, not just pristine landscapes. Angelo enjoys sharing his land management experiences and learning from others in the community. He harvested a kudu and other animals on his honeymoon in South Africa, creating lasting memories. Angelo prioritizes camaraderie and conservation in his hunting pursuits, valuing experiences over kills. And So Much More!

Chair of the Climate Change Advisory Council urges more action to actively encourage afforestation in the areas most suited to planting.

Winter dormancy is the best time to shift a tree or a shrub (or plant a new one), especially when they originate from a “temperate climate” (the kind that shed their leaves and hail from UK, Europe, North America, etc). When considering shifting a sub-tropical/semi tropical one, wait a little to just before spring sets in (mid-end September). These sub-tropicals do not really like to be dumped into a wet and cold soil for many weeks of deepest winter – it could kill them! Besides, as discussed last week, with these cold and wet soils all kinds of Root Rots (Phytophthora, Armillaria, Pithium, etc) might terminally affect your trees. Here are some ideas to make it work as well as possible: 1) Consider the size of the tree – smaller ones are much easier to (trans)plant than big ones. 2) Get a “trenching spade”. These long, narrow, sturdy blades are much more efficient at digging into cold, wet clay soils than the ordinary, wider spades. 3) Destination site – select the site where the tree has to go and dig a rather huge hole – you can't really dig big enough, as no matter what the root ball will be, a lot of extra drainage is always going to be beneficial. Drainage away from the root ball to be planted helps to avoid Root Rots. Mix in some pumice or compost in the loose soil material, so that it will become friable and nutritious with organic material; the tree will appreciate this new site as it has plenty of drainage and food. 4) Original site: with the trenching spade dig a circular shape around the tree's root-zone – remember that the wider you go, the heavier the root ball will be, you might need a bit of neighbourly help to lift the bugger out! Approx. 30 to 40 cm radius from the tree's stem is pretty good Try to get as many roots across as possible as the tree will re-establish better. 5) Levering with the trenching spade, remove the tree and its root ball out of its original site and transport it on a wheelbarrow to the destination site. If the soil starts to fall off the roots, use a hessian sack to wrap it all up before moving. 6) Plant the tree at destination site as soon as possible to prevent drying out. The level of the tree's soil should be the same at the new site – don't plant it deeper than it was before! In the unlikely event of destination site being too dry, fill the planting hole with water before the shift. 7) Stake the new tree to anchor it. Provide it with a bit of wind-shelter (windbreak) for the first year or so, firm the soil around the roots. Top-dress in spring with some slow-release fertilizer. If you've lost a lot of roots in the shift, prune the tops of the tree to restore the root/foliage balance. 8) I prefer to add some 3-4 inches of mulch over the root zone to keep moisture in and keep roots cool in summer. Keep the mulch away from the stem of the tree to avoid collar rots. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The UK has once more missed its tree planting targets - provisional figures for last year show that overall the number of trees planted fell in comparison with the year before, from 20 and a half thousand hectares to just over 15 and a half thousand hectares. The Government aims for 30,000 every year. New figures from the farming industry body the AHDB show that 190 dairy farmers left the industry last year. There are now 7,040 dairy producers in England, Wales and Scotland. That's a 2.6 per cent fall from the year before. But, despite that, there has been an increase in the amount of milk produced. We ask a dairy farmer why so many are leaving.English olive oil is now a reality, after a Cornish olive grower pressed his first oil last winter. Nik Butcher claims to be the first person to bottle English olive oil commercially since the Roman times. So could English olive oil one day prove as successful as English sparkling wine? All this week we've been hearing from those about to embark on farming related careers. For many students the exams are now over and they're just waiting for the results. For others, the wait is over, and we hear from three graduates from CAFRE, Northern Ireland's College of Agriculture Food and Rural Enterprise.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.

This week we're taking a closer look at the rural lives of islanders around our shores. A survey by the Young Islanders Network found the biggest concern for young people in Scotland's islands, is housing – or a lack of it. We speak to people about some of the problems they've faced - and some of the solutions.The Environment Food and Rural Affairs select Committee of MPs has been grilling the farming minister Daniel Zeichner about the repercussions of suspending the Sustainable Farming Incentive, or SFI, which gives payments to farmers for environmental work. Thousands of farmers have already joined, but it was abruptly closed to new applicants on 11th March. Trees are being planted on Dartmoor to help alleviate flooding. A team lead by the National Park Authority is using a method developed by Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki which plants a wide variety of native species close together to encourage rapid tree growth.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

In this bonus episode of the TreesForDev podcast we are delighted to be joined by Project PI, Maria Ehrnström-Fuentes and Maria Holmberg who works for FIDA in Tanzania. Maria H. moved to Tanzania with her parents when she was 1 year old, grew up there, and has been working with different development projects in Tanzania since 1984. Currently, Maria H. is working with tree planting and environmental education. Maria H. tells us about some of the positive impacts of tree planting in this context because the planted trees grow faster than the natural forests, which means they can then be cut down and used so the natural forests are allowed to continue to grow. The population in Tanzania has grown quite quickly over the last 70 years, from approximately 12 million to over 60 million. This has naturally increased demand for food and cooking fuel, which has led to the decimation of natural forests, which in turn threw the ecology out of whack. However, if the stumps are left to sprout and the trees are allowed to come back, then the ecology slowly comes back into balance. Maria H. particularly focuses on the impacts to the role of water in the ecosystem balance. Join us for this extensive and intensive conversation!Want to learn more about Maria H.'s work? https://www.fspm.fi/maria-holmberg-tanzania/ (in Swedish) Want to learn more about the Trees For Development Project? www.treesfordev.fi
