<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I prefer to make them available to our
chapter.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any thoughts?</FONT></DIV>
