Hello fellow agroforesters! Welcome to the November, 2013 edition of the Temperate Agroforester. As incoming editor, I welcome input or feedback about anything that you read in Temperate Agroforester. Thanks to Diomy Zamora for his past work as editor and best wishes for success in his new challenge as AFTA President.

A happy Christmas holiday to all AFTA members! In preparation for the next issue in 2014, please remember that, as always, the Temperate Agroforester welcomes contributions about agroforestry research, activities or developments that you would like to share with the AFTA membership.
