[MassChestnutOrchards] Successful planting at South Kingstown, RI 4/17

[Federowicz, Yvonne Marie]

Hello,

The U.R.I. Master Gardeners and South Kingstown Land Trust, along with a few other volunteers, planted two lines of Nanking BC4 nuts yesterday.  The drizzle cooperatively didn't turn into a downpour, and the 18 volunteers finished the planting by noon.

About 220 nuts were planted in Bluexes, with 90 backups in "milk cartons".

It's a wonderfully capable group down there - great job, folks!
