Chestnuts! That's right. I have just placed an order for our first batch of bare-root chestnut seedlings. We have spent the last few months researching new crops and are feeling confident that this could be our future. Since we're on the 20-year plan to retirement, we have a little time to experiment. We'll be planting trees in the spring and in the fall, doing soil testing, and different planting methods. I'll post some photos as soon as we get started, which should be within the next 2 weeks, depending on the weather. So for anyone out there that knows anything about chestnuts or growing nuts in general, our ears are open.
