I can't even mount the striders. There are 5 or 6 stacked, 1 has my name on it, but it will not let me mount :(

if you are unable to dismount (like I was), just run yourself into the tree behind him and relog. Should be dismounted then.
I'm not able to finish this quest because the hawkstriders are stacked on top of each other from other players who tried and failed this quest, and I still failed to see the mount up green arrow indicator regardless, so I guess I'll have to come back to this quest in a few days/weeks waiting on a fix

What to do
Description
It's hard to believe this used to be the Dead Scar. Up here, close to the city, the land has almost completely recovered. Which is good, because we've got a lot of mouths to feed. Hawkstriders are the perfect helpers for preparing the soil. Their tough claws can easily spread seeds and squash bugs! Meet me down in the Tranquil Repose and I'll saddle one up for you.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To the North Tower
Ranger Valsarin is a chef at Farstrider Hold. He's decent in a kitchen, but his passion is field cooking. There was a time when you could wander any path in Eversong and find the ingredients for a good meal. A Farstrider's dream!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- See a Mana 'bout a Wyrm
Mana wyrms may not be as glamorous as lynxes or hawkstriders, but they're crucial to keeping magic flowing through the forest. They congregate on the ley lines to molt, but sometimes they get a little agitated. And we have to help them out! Aggressively!
