🏞️ Product Description:
The Gobbler Chestnut is a blight-resistant hybrid of American and Chinese chestnut trees, specially selected for producing smaller, dime- to nickel-sized nuts that are irresistible to turkey and deer alike. With its high protein content and early drop window, this tree is a perfect addition for landowners looking to attract game during archery season.
Its quick growth, adaptability, and reliable nut production make it a powerful tool for wildlife managers and habitat builders. Plant a few, and you’ll soon understand why turkeys will travel from miles away just for a taste.

🐾 Summary:

Don't take our word for it...

Healthy Trees, On Time!
I placed my first order couple months ago. Everything came on time, order was right, and trees healthy. Everything has leafed out and growing great! Had such a good experience that I placed a second order. Can't wait for it to arrive!

Oak Orchard
I purchased 35 hybrid oak trees from Morse in 2005 and a majority of them are still alive and have been producing acorns for years. One is even big enough to hunt from. I planted them with tree tubes and watered them regularly for the first two years. It has been a pleasure watching them grow.

Great customer service!
I highly recommend Morse Nursery! My trees arrived 100% healthy. I was really impressed by the height of the trees. I expected little trees like I’ve gotten from other nursery’s. Will keep buying from you guys. Great customer service too.
