Catskills MaMA Training Workshop (Mt. Tremper) – learn what you can do to save ash from extinction!

In this Training Workshop, sponsored by the Catskill Regional Invasive Species Partnership (CRISP), as part of its region-wide implementation of the Monitoring and Managing Ash (MaMA) program, you’ll learn about important steps that you can take to help save ash from extinction, anywhere that ash are found – including sites where virtually all the ash trees have already been killed by Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) and those where this invasive pest insect has yet to arrive. All these steps, including MaMAs’ citizen-science and land-manager projects to search for genetically resistant “lingering ash” trees, are vital parts of MaMA’s innovative approach to ash conservation and EAB mitigation.
