Tom Wild leads this on-going project which has the ultimate goal of re-establishing the American Chestnut Tree. Workdays occur at different sites where owners have set aside sections of their land for experimentation and investigation in the search for a variety resistant to the destructive blight that has eliminated the Chestnut tree from our forests. Volunteers will be planting seeds and tending to seedlings and tabulating successes and failures with the hope of realizing the resurgence of this important tree.
