    The final #APCAW presentation is Thursday, July 12th. #Penobscot #basketmaker and founding director of the Maine Indian Basketmakers Alliance, #TheresaSecord will be the guest speaker.

    APCAW was kind enough to provide me with a link to last week's video and a PDF guide from the conference. I will be looking through the guide and will post about some of the key points at a later date.

    Even though the conference is free, pre-registration is required.

    Some highlights from the #APCAW conference on #AshTrees and #EmeraldAshBorer

    #JohnDaigle mentioned chemical treatment on selected trees combined with biological control releases. May not need to keep using chemical treatments if the bio-control takes hold.

    EricTopper: "Pheromones could draw EAB away from places which would fall under the bio-control umbrella."
    John replied that it has not been tested, as far as he knows.

    John Daigle: "The goal ultimately is to co-exist. Get brown ash to evolve to be more resistant, possibly by cross-breeding with other ash trees. That is being done with Manchurian ash and is having success."

    Ella MacDonald: "Brown ash used for Wabanaki basket making. Green ash not as suitable for basket making.
    We might breed brown with green ash - green ash might be more resistant to EAB. Possibly white ash with brown? However, there us no federal store of black or brown ash seeds. Seed collecting of those two are important. Folks can collect it themselves, after positively identifying the species."
