"Indigenous
knowledge, unlike Western science and technology, has tenets of
sacredness and spirituality. These ideas directly affect our
relationship to and interaction with nature and one another.
Thus, we are not just invisible, objective observers but actual
and accountable participants in the complex web of life.
Learning that plants have spirits may not mean much to a
research scientist or technophile. It will, however, have an
effect on the way we, as Anishinaabe, interact with
plants."
- Michael Wassegijig Price, Chair of the Department of Science
and Mathematics, Leech Lake Tribal College, Minnesota

Gnarly crowns abound
Ancient ones in dark glens stand
Mystery beckons

On March 14, 2010 The Eastern Native Tree
Society and Western Native Tree Society switched from discussion
lists on Google Groups to a new discussion list in a Bulletin
Board format at:
http://www.ents-bbs.org/index.php
Posts made since the inception of the BBS on march 14, 2010 will
be sorted and archived on the BBS. Click on the link above to go
to the equivalent section on the new BBS. This website will
continue to serve as a front end for the ENTS and WNTS groups.
It will continue to serve as a repository of older posts, and
will serve as the host site for special projects and features
that are not well suited for a BBS format. Please visit the BBs
for the latest information and trip reports.
Note: The following are an archive of material that has
been posted to the ENTStrees list. If the author of an
individual post objects to its inclusion in this archive, then
please contact the webmaster and that post will be deleted, or
all posts from that individual can be deleted. A complete
archive of these materials is posted at http://lists.topica.com
and is available to all subscribers of the ENTStrees list.
