Years ago, the chestnut tree outnumbered others with over 4 billion in total, and now, we are planting more to save the species!
The Preserve received five chestnut trees from Berry College through a program that the Rome-Seven Hills Rotary Club set up to distribute these trees. The Preserve was selected because of its location, educational programs, and willingness to participate in this program.
Our staff will continue to monitor the growth and health of the trees. Join us as a visitor to learn more and get first-hand knowledge about the return of the Chestnut tree.
