The chestnut crop from the Chinese Chestnut tree was eaten fresh or stored, and in the preparation of many dressings for poultry and meat: or the chestnut kernels were eaten, boiled, toasted, or steamed. The chestnuts could be crushed and powdered into a flower to be made into a heavy flat cake that strongly resembled an oatmeal cake.


The Chinese Chestnut tree not only provides a fast dense shade, but also a bonus of tasty nuts in October, just in time for Thanksgiving roasting.

The Chinese Chestnut is cold hardy and can survive temperatures of minus 29 degrees. The Chinese Chestnut is not self-pollinating and two different trees must be planted to insure a crop nut set.


Many grandparents claim that the original American Chestnut, which is today almost extinct was the best nut ever, but few people today can verify this fact by tasting, because the blight that almost exterminated this native tree happened 75 years ago. The Chinese Chestnut tree was imported into the U.S. about 100 years ago, but the quality of that chestnut could not justify replacing the American Chestnut market with the Chinese Chestnut.

The Chinese Chestnut Tree produces best when planted in full sun and are ideally suited to sandy, well-drained soils and are adaptable to most any growing condition.

Paw Paw Tree (Spring)


Paw Paw trees are native plants found in the United States by early American explorers.

Arbequina


Try planting nursery grown, grafted olive trees that can bear fresh olives the first year for table eating quality. In Northern states the olive trees can be containerized and grown near an entrance or planted in pots near the pool for that tropical flair, and in Winter just move your olive trees indoors and eat tasty olives all Winter. The olive oil produced from pressing Arbequina olives is of a high quality and a fruity musky flavor but rather unstable with a short shelf life in some cases.
