Here’s a little chestnut green today from The American Chestnut Foundation's Meadowview Research Farms in Virginia where we preserve, study, and breed American chestnut trees for resistance to the blight fungus. Pictured in these also: Ciera Wilbur, Nursery Manager; Cassie Stark, Laboratory Manager and Dr. Vasiliy Lakoba, Director of Research.

At Meadowview thousands of American chestnuts are at various stages of the breeding process, planted on more than 150 acres.

Where do these trees end up?

Can those trees be bought?

Can I buy few American chestnut seedlings or seeds from you ?

Is there some place I can get them in TN?.... we have 83 acres of land and would love to plant some

When can we the public get to get some so we can plant them around our areas. To help the Chestnut 🌰 trees make a comeback..?
