PHS Biology classes and the HSTA club would like to thank Robert Sypolt and Bernie and Linda Coyle for talking to our students about the American Chestnut and taking us on a tour of the Waddell Orchard located on PHS campus. This was a very educational topic, and we enjoyed learning about the chestnut and other flora growing on our campus.
We also want to thank the American Chestnut Foundation for recording a video at the orchard that we all watched to learn more about the American Chestnut blight and what is happening at our orchard to help the trees survive. The video features our very own Robert Sypolt, along with Mark Double and Amy Metheny.
