The 2022 edition of “The New Leaf”, CT-TACF Chapter annual newsletter, is now available online here! A printed version is currently making its way to the mailboxes of all the CT members.
This Winter/Spring 2022 Newsletter focuses on our Chestnut show-and-tell all over Connecticut, We found the lost Chestnut Bee!, A Successful Search for New Sources of American Chestnuts, and a call for volunteers
What an incredible tree the American chestnut was! As The American Chestnut Foundations continues its decades-long work to restore this species, we welcome you to join the cause!
Become a member, volunteer with your local chapter, or simply spread the word about this incredible tree. Visit support.tacf.org/membership to get started.

They can bring back a dead wolf from hundreds of years ago but they won’t bring back something useful like the American chestnut
If it's extinct it not possible to bring back
Thank NYC, destroyed not only the tree, but a way of life 😢

Huge thanks to our amazing Bonner Scholars, Maddy, our dedicated Farm Assistant, and Gabbie, our creative Social Media Intern for all their hard work this semester! We’re so grateful for their contributions and can’t wait to welcome them back in August for another season of collaboration.

Why don't they make a weevil that can't have babies? And put them in the wild? So it'll past it to overs so they'll die out!!!
