Editor: Mrill Ingram

Mrill's checkered past includes research into human-environment relationships, creating environmental outreach and educational materials, and magazine production. Recent project topics include invasive earthworms and land management at the UW Arboretum, increasing women and Hispanic farmers in Wisconsin, the use of urban Integrated Pest Management by professional landscapers in Madison, Wisconsin, and an analysis of how different agricultural policies influence farmers in their perceptions and management of their natural environment. She worked with Paul Williams to produce the Bottle Biology science education idea book, and has also worked at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson. The central focus of Mrill's research and educational efforts has been to contribute to a better understanding of how policies, technologies, cultural attitudes, and other ways of knowing shape human-nature relationships.

Associate Editor: Chris Reyes

Beginning with the Youth Conservation Corps in 1987, Chris has had a long career in the natural resources field. Four years at Reed College culminating in a B.A. in biology were followed by a summer on the revegetation crew of Olympic National Park. After two years in Peace Corps promoting agroforestry with native tree species in the Republic of Panama and four years on engines and a hotshot crew participating in wildfire suppression and prescribed burning, Chris returned to Wisconsin to pursue a M.S. in Land Resources, with an emphasis on fire management, ecological restoration, and invasive species control. Upon graduation, Chris began working for private restoration companies and joined Ecological Restoration as editorial assistant in 2006. Chris is currently a member of the Society for Ecological Restoration, the Invasive Plants Association of Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Prescribed Fire Council, and the Wisconsin Mycological Society. When not on the lookout for morels and other tasty items, collecting specimens to document new invasive species populations, or using a drip torch, Chris is dreaming about archery biathlons.
