Our Guest:

Gabe is a surfer, self-described "garden bro", and research associate that has taken it upon himself to make sure the public is aware of the affect some invasive species could have on our environment. He's been featured in the SF Chronicle, and was recently highlighted as one of the LA Times' "Plant PPL". Gabe's social media presence show the speed and voracity with which invasives can alter the environment, but also takes care to feature the natural beauty of his world to show that it's worth protecting. He's also full of great advice for gardeners at every stage, and anyone that wants to know more about the plants that make our green places beautiful.
