Ep 54: Verónica Godoy - Battling Bull Creek's invasive species

Verónica is a transplant to the USA from Argentina. As a plant molecular and cellular biologist and a plant lover, she soon began getting to know the fora of her new home, discovering the extent to which native plants were suffering as invasives flourished. As Texas Conservation Project Director for A Rocha USA, she now spends much of her time killing Glossy Privet in many ingenious ways, and as a result the Bull Creek Watershed is full of diverse life again. We talked to her about the nitty gritty of caring for an ecosystem, how she has been reengaging the local hispanic community with the great outdoors and what it took to put down roots in new soil.
