I am interested in expanding my wood
collection as funds permit. I collect in the
form of transverse slices, commonly known
as “tree cookies”. I am interested in all
woody tree and shrub species, even those
not considered commercially valuable. I
am looking for slices green or dry about
10-12” (~25 x 30 cm) in diameter, and/or
whatever is representative of that species.

I grow trees on my farm and own a small sawmill. I’m really looking for regular users of wood, rainforest species, especially Australian Red Cedar and others, Hoop Pine and a few Eucallyptus, but I can also supply some unusual species to wood collectors. Many of these trees I have planted myself.

I make my sample into 1” cubes, and am not interested in standard sized samples. I am mainly interested in shrub woods and species native to the US not considered commercially viable. I have a select few native New England shrub-woods and hardwoods available for trade.
