Chestnut Tree Seedlings for Sale — 4′ Trees, Mix & Match 10 Trees- Ships Late Fall

What are these 4′ chestnut tree seedlings?

This listing covers our full lineup of 4′ chestnut tree seedlings, grown at EBB Farms. Instead of picking one seedling at a time, you choose your total quantity here. Then you tell us your exact mix in the order note. So a single order might include 5 UMCA® PQK, 2 Sleeping Giant, and 3 Eaton — whatever combination fits your planting plan.

Currently available seedling varieties: UMCA® PQK, Qing, Sleeping Giant, Empire Elite, Hiram, Miller, Amy, Dunstan, Eaton, and Gideon.  

How to order your mix

• At checkout, use the order note field to list your varieties and quantities (example: “5 UMCA® PQK, 2 Sleeping Giant, 3 Qing”).
• Make sure your note quantities add up to your total order quantity. That way, we can pull and pack the right trees the first time.
• Have a special request, a large order, or a variety not listed above? Just give us a call at 678.234.4894.

Why growers choose this listing

• Order once, mix freely — no need to add several separate products to your cart.
• Every order includes a free Tree Planting Guide download from the United Chestnuts Academy.
• Ideal for growers building a diverse planting instead of a single-variety block.
• Broad genetic diversity across your order supports stronger pollination once trees mature.
• Backed by the same grading standards as every EBB Farms seedling, regardless of variety.

Seedling grade and size

Every 4′ seedling in this listing is nursery-grown at EBB Farms and graded for:

• Strong, healthy root systems.
• Sturdy stems with good caliper for their size class.
• Field-ready height, typically in the 4′ range at shipping.

As a result, seedlings ship dormant in the fall, ready for planting into prepared sites.

Planting ideas for a mixed order

Use a mixed order to:

• Build a diverse orchard row instead of a single-variety block.
• Add several varieties to a silvopasture or alley-cropping layout at once.
• Compare how different seedlings perform side by side on your site.

Because chestnut trees are not self-fertile, a mixed order also solves your pollination planning in one step. In fact, most growers need at least two compatible varieties in range anyway, so ordering a mix here does double duty.

Basic planting and care

For best results:

• Choose a well-drained, full-sun site and avoid low frost pockets when possible.
• Space trees generously for future canopy size, airflow, and equipment access.
• Control grass and weeds around each tree during establishment.
• Protect seedlings from deer and rodent damage with tubes, cages, or fencing as needed.

Backed by the EBB Farms learning hub

EBB Farms is the farm lab for United Chestnuts, the learning and development hub for the chestnut community. So every order comes with more than trees. Each purchase includes straightforward planting guidance.

You can also plug into the wider United Chestnuts platform for videos, guides, and real grower examples. For instance, visit Rsources for practical field notes and resources. Or, for real-world grower stories and strategies, read our helpful blog and follow the Branching Out: Growing Together podcast.
