We’ve been watching an excellent crowdfunded documentary series called Woodlanders. It brought to our attention a guy working to reintroduce the chestnut tree to American forests. We couldn’t believe it was even possible to acquire young chestnuts so we pretty much had to place an order. It arrived this week and to our surprise it still had leaves from the season previous. This is when it hit us what it meant to be planting this.

We got leaves from the forest, one the of many things trees give us.
