Restoration of the American Chestnut

Restoration of the American Chestnut In-Person

The American chestnut was a keystone species in the forests of the Appalachian Range until a blight fungus from Asia decimated the population.  This presentation offered by members of the American Chestnut Foundation explains why the American chestnut was so important to the area and the steps that The American Chestnut Foundation is taking in its efforts to restore this iconic tree to the eastern forests.

This event is organized in partnership with the The Woodbury Shade Tree & Sidewalk Committee.  The Woodbury Shade Tree & Sidewalk Committee supports the community by planting trees in public spaces, educating residents about trees and their care, and advocating for improved pedestrian walkways.
