Chris,
I've found that one of the best ways to get permission to collect a variety of trees is to volunteer with groups that are doing construction, trail, or conservation work in your area. It has given me access to trees that would soon be bulldozed. Trails must be cleared. Conservation groups are often interested in removing non-native, invasive species. You do good for the community, and have no regrets about the trees you take home.
