Large, tangled swaths of swallow wort have proliferated along the Long Path farther south and along the bike path below. Removing the relatively small patches here seemed to make sense, and I checked with Linda Rohleder the Coordinator of the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference’s Invasive Species Strike Force and the new leader of the Lower Hudson Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management (PRISM). She agreed and arranged to send Keith Shane, a Cornell University biology student who spent the summer as an intern with the Strike Force, to do the job.
