Time to stratify the harvest from century+ old American chestnuts in Oregon and Washington! Preserving pre-blight genetics from an accidental genetic diversity repository! #TACF #americanchestnut #chestnutrestoration

Once more than 4 billion American chestnut trees spread from southern Canada to Mississippi & Alabama. The blight decimated them, but "Since 1983, the American Chestnut Foundation (TACF) has taken the lead in restoring" them. Volunteers play a key role & TACF connects with them via chestnut stories
Today, while millions of American chestnut sprouts remain in the forests of the East, almost all the large trees, as well as most of the people who remember the trees’ dominant place in the forest ecosystem, are gone. www.hnn.us/article/tell...

Tremendously inspiring. @tomruby.bsky.social , did you get your American Chestnuts from your TACF chapter?
Thread on reforesting land.
In 2012 we moved to new house on 15.5 acres. ~6 acres old growth forest. Rest hayed pasture. Started transplanting saplings first year and every year for 6 years.
Now The Meadow is a forest. 3 species Chestnuts including 25 15/16ths American.
70 species of trees

Ok, so as I wrap up the final bits of Mind Engine, the stakes just got a little bit higher? Got a notice from TACF that a space for me is free! I'll be tabling for the first time in, well, a lot of years! 😍.
Just sent my acceptance for the spot.

Been seeing a lot of people digging up the things that Aunt Dolly was quietly bankrolling. Thought I'd add another: she funded efforts that could save the American chestnut tree from extinction.

Biotechnology, including genome editing and marker assisted selection, offers a powerful method to accelerate gains along with RGS. To aide these efforts we built reference genomes for America and Chinese chestnut genotypes that founded The American Chestnut Foundations' (TACF) breeding program.

For me, I personally sympathize with TACF but suspect that this stepwise process is what we were going to get no matter what, which is why I said I didn't think it made that much difference.

The American Chestnut Foundation made a surprise move this month
It withdrew support on regulatory petitions for the controversial genetically-engineered American chestnut tree “Darling 58" due to “significant performance limitations."

Elissa Sussman is one of my favourite contemporary romances authors, and I just recently finished Totally and Completely Fine (highly recommend, especially if you’ve read Funny You Should Ask, as TACF is a sequel of sorts); so I’m really excited to listen to her chat with Ella! 📚💘
This week's episode of Rebel Ever After is up early!
Elissa Sussman and I talked about "older" romance heroines, widow tropes that need to be retired, and why being horny rules.
