If you place your order after we have completed shipping to your region we will ship your order out within 5-10 business days.
Mycorrhizae is a beneficial soil fungus that grows on the roots of your trees and helps them take up water and nutrients more effectively. Similar to inoculating plants like beans and peas prior to planting. If you select this option we will include a packet of mycorrhizae granules with your trees. Just sprinkle in the hole prior to planting and you're good to go. We don't plant anything here at the farm without using it ourselves!
When you buy from us you can rest assured that you're going to end up with a healthy growing tree come spring. We guarantee that all our trees will emerge from dormancy so you don't have to worry about spending your money on something that may or may not bud out come spring. Just follow the recommendations in our planting instructions and your tree is covered.
You must protect your trees with one of our tree tubes for this guarantee to apply.

All the same traits that make our Hybrid Chestnuts great with one added bonus, a late season drop time. These trees have been selected to drop Nov-late Dec allowing you to offer your deer chestnuts well into the late season when all others have already been mopped up. Late in the year most acorns and other hard mast has already fallen and deer have fewer options which just compounds the drawing power of these trees. If you’ve seen the drawing power of other chestnuts, just wait till you see how attractive these late dropping trees can be.
Blight resistant, bears in just 2-5yrs, extremely palatable nuts, fast growing, and easy to grow. Add some to your order today and extend your chestnuts into the late season.
You must protect your trees with one of our Tree Tubes to be covered under our Survival Guarantee. Please read the full details here
