This summer, we’re aiming to produce 1,000 hand-pollinated nuts for our genomic-assisted breeding program, and each one is a vital step toward restoring the American chestnut.
Producing a single nut takes time, tools, and teamwork, so these nuts aren't cheap! Each one costs us about $25 to produce. From pollination to harvest, every step is a critical part of breeding a more blight-resistant tree.
By sponsoring just one nut for $25, you’re helping us bring the American chestnut back to our forests. Sponsor a handful, and you’re helping to rebuild an entire ecosystem.
This nutty campaign only runs from June 3 to 23, and we’ve got 1,000 nuts to grow. Please join us!
Sponsor a nut below, and watch the pile grow!
