 Branching
Out: Your Guide to California Trees
"I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree." That popular refrain by poet Alfred Joyce Kilmer has long expressed our deep affection for trees.
Plus, Paul shows you where to find free or low-cost shade trees for your own backyard courtesy of the Sacramento Tree Foundation and other organizations. You’ll not only have trees delivered right to your door but find out where best to plant them so they thrive and how to nourish them to a healthy old age. You'll never look at trees the same way again after watching "Branching Out: Your Guide to California Trees." Resources

In
California, we are blessed with an abundance of trees. Even our state
capital possesses the fitting nickname "The City of Trees,"
with more than 150,000 trees that compose our urban forest. Nature offers
her bounty in all shapes, sizes, and colors. Some are dressed in needles
and cones. Others unfold a dazzling transformation of foliage from green
to yellow, then crimson. Some are so tall, they scrape the sky, while
others bear fruit and nuts that spring from our orchards. Trees give
us beauty, shade, and help clean our air. It's no exaggeration that
trees are California's most valuable and treasured assets.
Join
us as respected travel reporter Paul Ryan - host of KVIE's "Experience
America"- goes in search of the Golden State's most beloved and
grand trees. From the giant Sequoia to the gnarly Bristle Cone Pine
and California's majestic Oak, Paul shows you why trees have become
attractions in and of themselves. We'll travel to the strange desert
world of the Joshua Tree, then show you where Californians can experience
a riot of dazzling fall colors.
