I hated to post this episode. Saying goodbye to Cassie & Denny was surprisingly hard. I hope this unexpected and abrupt end will shed light on the importance of breeding Phytophthora resistance into restoration populations of the American chestnut. Thanks for joining us on this emotional journey and please consider supporting The American Chestnut Foundation to save future Cassies and Dennies from this fate. https://tacf.org | The American Chestnut Foundation

The American Chestnut Foundation is committed to bringing this iconic species back through a state-of-the-art breeding program: recurrent genomic selection (RGS). While continuing to cross American chestnuts with blight-resistant Asian varieties, TACF will now utilize genomic testing to select progeny with increased blight resistance while preserving 70% – 100% of the tree’s American heritage. This method will allow TACF to more quickly and accurately predict which seedlings are most likely to s

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. From pollination to harvest, every step is a vital part of the process to ensure that each nut has the best chance possible to grow into a more blight-resistant tree. Here’s what goes into a single $25 nut: Pollination Bag: $5 Hand Pollination Process: $5 Harvesting t

These are some high-value nuts. And Chester’s got 1,000 to gather. Each $25 nut is hand-pollinated, harvested, and carefully stored as part of our breeding program to restore the American chestnut to its native range. This isn’t just about one squirrel—it’s about rebuilding a forest, one nut at a time. 🌰 Help us grow 1,000 nuts by June 23 📅 Donate today to help Chester reach his goal: https://support.tacf.org/nuts #OneNutAtATime #ChestnutRestoration #ChesterTheSquirrel #TheseNutsMatter #SaveTh
