Podcasts about tree work: ten shows described from their own Apple Podcasts pages
An alphabetical directory of ten podcasts about arboriculture and tree care, each described from the show description on its Apple Podcasts page, with the update schedule and latest listed episode where the page shows one.
Checked against the sources at the bottom of this page on October 9, 2026. Rules, fees and pay change: the source has the last word.
This directory describes shows by what their own Apple Podcasts pages say. Nothing is ranked, no host is named, and none of the shows is rated here. The update schedule is the label Apple shows on each page, and episode dates are quoted as listed there, some with a year and some without. Two shows already described on Associations, magazines and podcasts for tree workers appear again here with fuller notes.
| Show and publisher | What its page says, and what the page lists |
|---|---|
| Arborist Podcast, publisher shown as Arborist Podcast | Describes itself as an educational hub for tree care professionals, climbers and business owners, with three strands: ISA Certified Arborist exam preparation covering tree biology, soils and safety, a rigging series on physics and the forces on rigging gear, and a business series. Apple files it under How To. Latest episode listed September 23. |
| ATCP In The Canopy, listed under the association's name | Called the official podcast of the Association of Tree Care Professionals. The description says each episode is a conversation with people in tree care, from arborists to business owners, covering safety, professional standards, mentorship and running a company.

What the pages show about each kind of show
Two shows come from industry bodies, one from the International Society of Arboriculture and one from the Association of Tree Care Professionals. One is the audio edition of a trade magazine. Several others speak mainly to people running firms or working as climbers.
Apple labels the shows under different categories, including Education, News, Entrepreneurship, How To, Nature, Natural Sciences and Self-Improvement, so searching one category misses most of them. A show with no stated update schedule, such as the research series from the International Society of Arboriculture, shows only the date of its newest listed episode.
Several descriptions point to a sponsoring company, a company owner or a support page. The pages are read here as they stand, and no claim is made about how any show is funded beyond what its description says.
