American Chestnut in the Forests of the Frontier (Lecture Series at FCM)

The Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton is hosting a special Winter Lecture Series on The American Chestnut in the Forests of the Frontier.  The series will raise public awareness of the importance of this tree species to frontier culture when it was thriving, and of the efforts now under way to restore it to its natural habitat.  The series is dedicated to our own Mark Gatewood, long time employee of FCM who will be retiring soon.

See the schedule for lectures in Feb. and March:
