I cut down and sold the firewood locally of the last two White Ash trees on my property about five years ago.
They were two beautiful trees with 40’ clear trunks.
I counted the growth rings. They were both just over 100 years old.
It was a shame to cut them up into firewood.
In the last five years there has been a big push to cut down all the White Ash trees along the roads in NH by Eversource’s power lines. There are hundreds laying on the ground in the woods in my area.
FYI, MLB had to switch from White Ash to Sugar Maple for their baseball bats. There are just not any Ash trees left.
Another gift from CHINA.
“Another gift from CHINA.”. Correction another gift from the greedy CEO’s that offshored all our manufacturing.
