21/80

~*YET ANOTHER UPDATE*~

  • Everything has been super busy lately, between all the work in school I've been receiving, the school play, and SATs.  I haven't really had time to do much work on this because my mind has been otherwise occupied.   I certainly will go full-speed ahead after this week is over, I hope. 
  • My goal as of now is to get information and start raising to buy the trees and/or saplings.  I'll call Mr Nardone hopefully tomorrow, and send an email to the ACF guy.
  • My curriculum needs a few touch-ups and information sheets, then I should be good to go in terms of talking to people and getting the word out about my project. I'll probably make a worksheet and a crossword... Something like that. :3 
AGAIN, I'm kinda bugging out because of all that's been going on.  I hope to get things going more fluidly when I have less work to do. 
So sorry, guys.

Okay, here's a little update on what's going on:

~*UPDATE*~
  • Mr Nardone replied to me, and I plan on having a conversation with him either sometime this week or the following.  He said that he liked my idea and was willing to give me some advice! :3
  • I also got a reply from the Saratoga Tree Nursery, and they gave me contacts to both David Lee and Allen Nichols from the NYS Chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation. (Ooooo~ that's exciting)
That's really all I have to say for now. School has been pretty busy lately, and SATs are next week.  
I hope to get back here again regularly soon!
