Yeah would be nice to have the old timey chestnuts back again.

Ain't gonna happen folks.

We can't keep mountain tops intact? WTF!!!

No one really cares anyway. We can't save what we got even.

Long time members of TACF got five chestnut nuts from the first "release version" of the 15/16ths blight resistant American chestnut.

Not every mountain has coal underneath it (THANK GOD !) so some mountains will be left.

Airdale,

This time you are wrong old buddy-if we last another half a century.

We still have a couple of trees that just won't die on our place,it's not all that uncommon,but we have not had any nuts for years.

There are chesnuts out west.The nuts were carried by poineers and the blight has not reached them.

Unfortunately you and I won't see them on the ridges and in the hollows here in the East ,we're too old.

Sounds like a good addition to a food forest. I've bookmarked this sub-thread.
