Hi Allison.
I'm curious, do you think straw bale technology could be used to do the
lower wall for the foundation of a greenhouse?
I get your point, alien plants are only part of the problem, native
plants are contending with an entire alien situation. And with global
warming, that is even more so and more ubiquitous.
I share your frustration with the CRP "native" plantings. Here in
Maryland they recommend a mix of cultivars of natives and outright
aliens. It's hard to find a farm field far enough from the CRP
plantings to avoid cross pollination for my nursery. We try keeping
them mowed so they don't flower. Hopefully, eventually, as I turn my
nursery into a nonprofit, perhaps I can have some influence on the CRP
program here.
Best!
Sara
