Hello FRAMErs. Today I attended the meeting of the Mid-Atlantic chapter of the Society for Ecological Restoration (SER). My colleague Michael Leff  “encouraged” me to come and present a poster on the FRAME program. Great meeting! For one thing, I finally hooked up with some NYC folks – both Forest Service and NYC Parks – that I’ve been meaning to contact. Looking forward to visiting them and checking out forest restoration and sociological research on my old home turf . . .
