Kentucky Color: The Adair Tree By Billy Joe Fudge During the 1990s, the old American chestnut tree growing on Charles England's farm in the Bull Run watershed of Adair County was introduced to the world, because of its very rare genetic resistance to the blight that killed billions of American chestnut trees across our eastern hardwood forest in the early 20th Century. Since that time, this tree has been pollinated from trees in nearly a half dozen states and from several other trees in Kentucky, in an effort to tap into its unique blight resistance. Offspring of the tree on Charles England's farm are now growing in research and genetic repositories across the Eastern United States. Nowadays, its fame has spread far and wide and it has become known as The Adair Tree! Just as "The" has brought the eyes of the American public to bear upon Ohio State University, it is now bringing the eyes of the scientific community and the world to bear upon Adair County, Kentucky.
