I realize that they take a while to get going, I'm curious about
transplanting chestnut trees. My property is already covered with
all kinds of trees, that I need to remove to make room for the
chestnut trees. I'm wondering if I could get a whole bunch of 1yr
or 2yr trees, and start them all very close together in a clear
area, to get them growing, then they can be growing while I finish
buidling my house and clear a larger area, install irigation
system.. etc, then transplant them into the proper spacing as
larger trees. any advice on doing this? how would I dig up the
trees without damaging them?

I'm searching for places to buy trees, does anyone have any
suggestions? I'm hoping to get some planted around February or
March.
