Michigan Has Some of The Finest Red Oak You'll Find in The World!

This one majestic red oak tree was a good 7 feet across at the base!

One Majestic Red Oak Tree!


This majestic red oak tree was found in a woodlot located in Byron Michigan a village of Shiawassee County . A selective timber harvest was performed. The woodlot had an abundance of young timber and the promise of a future harvest.

Yes, this tree was included in the selective harvest. Some might say "What a shame to cut that beautiful tree!"  Although we do greatly respect the beauty of it and stood in awe, we also understand that a tree this size has come to the end of it's life. Trees this size very likely have internal issues, as trees generally die from the inside out. If this tree was left alone and stood to die, than all value for the property owner would have  eventually  been lost! (This tree brought an approximate $2000.00 to the landowner).

So, by harvesting this red oak tree, the younger less mature hardwoods in close proximity were released to the opportunity to grow to their full capacity, by  receiving much needed sunlight as well as taking up the nutrients in the ground that the massive root system had been using.

We are sure this tree made many pieces of beautiful furniture. Furniture to be used and admired and handed down for years  come.
