Do you want to be a cool dude, going out into the woods, forgoing societal duties, living amongst the mosses, but don't know where to start? Lily Rice will discuss her experiences botanizing, what it means to botanize, and a few nice things to make your lives easier (but aren't not necessary).

In addition, Lily will recount her amateurish attempt at finding a rare Ohio orchid, Platanthera ciliaris, as well many other amazing plants (that she did actually find). 

As an episode-ending palate cleanser Lily's wife, Kassandra Rice, agreed to talk about her layperson interests in hiking and discovering new organisms.

Thanks for listening, and if you find yourself enjoying, hating, or feeling no discernable emotion towards this podcast, please leave a comment letting Lily know!
