The American Chestnut has a consistent yield every year of large sweet nuts that are commonly used to feed wildlife such as deer, squirrels, wild turkeys, and bears. It is the very best tree for attracting deer and wildlife into your yard or landscape. American forests used to be loaded with Chestnuts that were plentiful for the wildlife to snack on. When Chinese Chestnut trees were introduced into our landscapes during the early 19th century, a susceptibility to blight occurred and killed many of the edible chestnut forests. These genetically engineered nut trees allowed for resistance to the blight and restored chestnut seedlings to pop up all over where they once grew across North America!

These sweet tasting nuts are perfect for fresh eating right off the tree, roasting, or for attracting animals. Plant these large trees in a grove or have a few specimen trees in your fruit and nut orchard. The trees will bear fruit in 1-3 years after planting. It is one of the most sought after and high demand nut trees in the US.
