Reply to comment by iN2nowhere in Biotech chestnut tree poised to restore lost ecosystems and biodiversity — But it needs your help by Spiffydude98
My dad told me stories of how before the chestnut epidemic there were Chestnut trees everywhere from maine to Georgia. A squirrel could travel practically the whole way simply on the branches of the American Chestnut tree.
It would be so cool to get to see even a partial return. Plus chestnuts are frigging tasty!

Can you imagine what the Indians must have seen? The forests, tall grass prairies with gorgeous flowers, buffalo from one horizon to another. We only see glimmers of it now. I am so thankful for the people working everyday to preserve the natural pockets and recapture fallowed lands for nature.
