In addition to enjoying three days of music and fun at Hemlockfest coming up the first weekend of November (see http://hemlockfest.org/blog/) GA-TACF will be hosting an entertaining public education/membership drive event at Dry County Brewing on Sunday Nov. 11.
Check out this recent article in Backpacker magazine that focuses on TACF's chestnut restoration efforts!

Efforts to restore the American chestnut comprise "one of the most epic conservation stories ever told.”0 CommentsComment on Facebook
Great fun at yesterday's Chestnutoberfest! Met a lot of new people, ate of lot of roasted chestnuts and chestnut blondies, drank a bit of chestnut ale, and listened to some great Appalachian mountain music from Russell Cook and Friends! If we missed you, please come out to one of our future events. Among other things, we will be having some seedling and seed distribution events later this fall and early next year.
If any attendee has some more photos to share, please send them to us. We were quite busy and didn't get many pics!
