Susan Carpenter, native plant gardener at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, chats with Ben about the joy and biodiversity that come with gardening with native plant species, how pollinators and birds benefit from native plants, ways to find out more about native plants, how prescribed burns are carried out at the University Arboretum, and how her dog expects milk bones from every delivery truck.
