[MassChestnutOrchards] B3F3 Nuts

[Rufin Van Bossuyt]

I have been informed that I am eligible to receive 15 B3F3 Restoration chestnuts. I can accept the nuts or make them available to our chapter.
I prefer to make them available to our chapter.
I would like to have them planted at significant existing orchard locations such as: Tower Hill Botanic Garden, Moore State Park, Mass. Fish and Wildlife, Quabbin Reservoir, River Bend State Park, etc.
Others in our chapter will also be eligible to receive B3F3 nuts. Maybe they too would like to make them available for planting by the chapter.
We could start the nuts in pots in a location that is protected from the various animals that would like to eat them and where they would get good care by watering etc. We could then plant the seedlings and again have good protection for them.
Any thoughts?

Rufin
