I've been growing oak trees in rootmakers for about 4 years now and I've began to want to get more diversity and have found a lot of good info on chestnuts and it has really interested me and I would like to hear more from others. My limitation is I don't have a local source to collect chestnuts from like I do with acorns, I don't have a problem buying some but chestnut seedlings aren't cheap compared to bareroot trees. For others growing chestnuts, where have you been getting your trees or seed? What varieties should I look for? From what I've been hearing is that many people like chestnut trees over oaks for deer, so I think they would be a great addition along with the oaks on the farm
