Join us TODAY, Friday, August 16, 2024, from 11:30AM – 1:00PM (ET), for the next LIVE Chestnut Chat.
Special guests Tony D’Amato and Tim Stout will discuss the role of the American chestnut in forest management strategies that address the impacts of climate change and invasive insects and pathogens on eastern forests. Tony will provide an overview of the frameworks and approaches under evaluation and Tim will bring it to a landowner scale by discussing the strategies being tested and applied on his farm in Shrewsbury, Vermont.
