Summer of Food Forests: The Chestnut Grove in Highbridge Park

This event is organized by the Bronx River Alliance.

Visit the Chestnut Grove in Highbridge Park established by friends at New York Restoration Project (NYRP) in partnership with NYC Parks Dept and longtime American Chestnut Conservationist Bart Chezar. Learn how NYRP has been working to bring back the functionally extinct American Chestnut, by establishing a hybridized variety created to withstand the original Chestnut Blight that destroyed our American Chestnut population.

Meeting place: Highbridge Park Grand Staircase (Laurel Hill Terrace & West 184^th Street)
