Does anyone know where there is a Chestnut tree in Rhode Island?

Anyway, these trees (after an extensive hybrid growing effort) will be making a comeback starting in the next few years.  It seems they have some young seedlings that seem to be fungus resistant.

Answer 2

I'll be happy if someone finds one for you. I gew up with the big, beautiful chestnut trees in the 1940-1950s and I miss them. Sadly, they fell victim to disease and have been wiped out along the east coast. I hope someone can correct me and tell me they have come back but, I think they are all gone.
