[MAIPC] New York invasives

[HTI Gmail]

This is a very interesting model.  This model is extremely inclusive and 
works through multiple non-profits to get the work done.  IFor example, 
they contract with an AT trail maintaining club (New York New Jersey 
Trail Conference) to manage the invasive control (including herbicide) 
program on public trail systems.

Other programs are more landowner focused (important, not complete).

FWIW, I just came back from a week training on the 1964 Wilderness Act 
and training of stewards for those areas.  That gave me whole new 
perspective and appreciation for what we are doing.  While I consider 
myself "just" a forest gardener, we ARE protecting the wilderness areas 
by fighting to improve the health of the buffers.
