Eastern national forests also need our care, attention
I saw your new site, Treesource.org, and read the article on the new PBS-TV documentary featuring Chuck Leavell. I have been working with (producer) Bruce Ward for several years on these issues.

This is a national crisis – not just a Western problem.
