What was the “happiest place on Earth” before it was Disneyland? And what is it before that? We go back in time today to explore the dark history of the changes of this land from indigenous river people to farmland to massive theme park, and the one tree that survived it all, the Canary Island date palm (Phoenix canariensis).

Completely Arbortrary is produced and hosted by Casey Clapp and Alex Crowson
