These are from locally grown and adapted Chinese chestnut trees on our farm.  So, you know if they can grow at our windy elevation of USDA zones 4B/5A they will grow in yours.  Known to grow in 4a, try in zones 3.  Dormant trees are 10" to 20" tall when shipped. When mature at 25 years they are about 25 to 30 feet tall and 25 feet wide, with a round form as shown. These nuts are typical of many Chinese chestnuts and are on the smaller size of orchard chestnuts. 

These are tasty, sweet nuts! If you ask us, they taste like a sweet pistachio.

Wild Life Food Plot Heaven.  This is the tree for feeding wildlife.  Nuts drop early October to fatten up deer, bear and turkey for the winter.

When do we ship trees?

We are at the mercy of nature when we ship trees.  We must wait for the trees to be dormant to supply you with the healthiest trees for spring vigor.  Juvenile trees do not like to go dormant until there is “killing frost”. The term killing frost just means the trees will stop growth and go dormant for the winter.

Spring we typically ship late-April to late-May weather dependent, dormant and bare root.  In the fall we ship mid-October to early November, dormant and bare root. 

You will be notified of pending shipment to your address, when a shipping label has been made for your order.

   We cannot ship to the west coast states or where chestnut gall wasps quarantines exist, like Michigan.  Cannot ship to Canada for small orders.  We do not have chestnut gall wasps on our farm.

Reminder a "cultivar" is a clone of the parent tree and performs just like the parent as it is the one and same genetics.  Whereas, "seedlings" are just like children, it inherits traits from both parents and what traits are expressed we learn as it matures.
