r/freebies

Hey everyone! If you are interested in forest conservation, native trees, or helping bring back a "functionally extinct" keystone species, the American Chestnut Restoration project is offering free seed nuts.

​Just a quick heads-up/disclaimer for anyone looking to grow them: these are wild-type seed nuts, meaning they do not have built-in resistance to the chestnut blight. They are meant for people who want to participate in amateur growing, monitoring, or supporting the broader effort to keep the genetics alive.
