A Botanical Arms Race - Dr. Denise Knapp

In this Conservation Conversation episode we talk with Dr. Denise Knapp, who serves as the Director of Conservation and Research for the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden in Santa Barbara, CA, a non-profit botanic garden whose mission is to conserve California native plants and habitats for the health and well-being of people and the planet. They do this through their four key tenets of understanding biodiversity, protecting rare plants, restoring habitats, and engaging and mentoring their community.
