On June 5th, 3 Rutland Middle School students (Donovan, Zaida, and Caiden), along with their two teachers (Mr. Bjorn and Van Sciver) planted a MEREDITH-2023 chestnut seedling near Rocky Pond in Pine Hill Park in Rutland, VT. It is one of 50 American chestnuts planted in the park by students over the years in hopes they will someday produce viable nuts for the wildlife of the park.

That's just Bigfoot pruning around
We love helping students get excited about, and involved in, the American chestnut tree!
