These beautiful backcross seedlings from TACF's Meadowview Research Farms are hanging out in our Asheville office looking pretty in the sunlight.

Love the trees
Looking pretty…pretty Chinese. 😞
I sent a membership in and have heard nothing back, did you steal my money?
Chestnut season may be winding down, but the thrill of finding these hidden treasures never gets old.

Will Chestnut trees grow in the North?
I have several chestnut trees on my farm and they produce every year. I know the wildlife loves them. 
Wish mine would start producing

I can't make that meeting, but I've been a TACF member in AL for many years.
Just a question regarding planting chestnuts in Iowa. I understand that not all states allow them. Perhaps I am wrong ? I think California prohibits them ? Does anyone know, are chestnut trees planted on private property allowed in Iowa ?
