@Tapirlord I can volunteer, if they'll have me, given I'm up there every three months and all my botany units focus on plants from the new england/north coast region...

I think that's a good idea, i'd appreciate the extra hands to be honest. If you're interested in any groups in this region, feel free to take those on as well. I'll get to email admin (One of the Michael's or Aaron) or just apply through the project - i'm happy for you to say that you have my support :).
