Davisville, Sept. 20, 2021: Amid drought and frightening wildfires, Davis is relatively fortunate

Mon, 09/20/2021 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

The sun of 2021, by Mark Deamer.jpg

The prediction a few weeks ago, inspired by this year’s ravaging wildfires, that “every acre [in California] can and will burn” — does that really apply to Davis? And if the drought continues through this coming winter and spring, does Davis have the water it needs? Today we talk with Stan Gryczko, director of Public Works Utilities & Operations for the city, and Joe Tenney, Davis fire chief, about the city’s water supplies, conservation, and the fire risks facing Davis in 2021.

Fox on a rooftop, a musical journey on Listening Lyrics

Fri, 09/17/2021 - 4:00pm | Pieter Pastoor

fox.jpg

It did happen -- a fox was spotted on a rooftop in west Davis. I heard about it and put a musical take on this, using the words "rooftop" and "fox," or a connection to it.

Take a listen on this week's (Sept. 17) Listening Lyrics.

Davis Garden Show, Sept. 16, 2021, Brassicas -- a one-plant wonder

Thu, 09/16/2021 - 12:00pm | Don Shor

Brassicas.jpg

'Tis a time of CHANGE! Weather is cooler, season is later ... For some folks, it's time to cut down the cucumber vines and plant some brassicas. For others (like Don), there are still tomatoes ripening to harvest into October. What's your plan for a winter garden? Now is a good time to plant peas, lettuce, brassicas, and other cool seaon vegetablees. You can also plan to put "cover crops" on the portion of your summer garden that you don't plan to plant for the winter -- to keep down weeds and improve your soil.

Stream in for the music and stay for some fun facts, such as: Why did Orcadians make up the majority of the employees of The Hudson Bay Company, and how did a Bluebird travel more than 300 mph over Coniston Water in 1967?

pothos-400x518-from-ad.jpg

Today's topics:

Tomato problems this year
Water needed for growing food is more than water needed to just grow foliage
Almond trees
Nematodes -- what are they and what to do if you have them
House plants that are, and are not, easy to grow
Don recommends for new gardeners: Golden pothos (and relatives), Easy ZZ, and Snakeplant (Sanserveria)
Growing trees indoors
Ficus benjamina = flexible about lighting, but fussy when you move it.
Is it too late to plant tomatos? Pepper? Pumpkins? YES, those get planted in the spring to be HARVESTED in the fall.
Now is the time to start planning (and planting) your winter garden! (More details next show.)

The Folk Brothers for Sept. 8, 2021: Folk musicians strike back

Wed, 09/08/2021 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

Unknown.jpeg

Many Folk/Americana musicians -- like those featured on today's show -- have never shied away from calling out hypocrisy and injustice. Jackson Brown has long championed the anti-war movement. Iris DeMent (pictured here) advocates for women's rights. And Jason Isbell has challenged the intolerance and ignorance of many country music fans: recently he has advocated for proof of vaccinations to attend his live perfromances. Also on today's show, new music from Spiers and Boden, Adam Holmes, The Faux Paws, and a 50-year-old classic track from Lindisfarne.
