The Stately Black Walnut Tree

The tree is as tough as the nut. The wood from the black walnut tree is used for furniture, as it is a hardwood with a beautiful grain. In is also very good for out door use. The tree can grow to 90 feet and beyond. They are a beauty to behold. Unfortunately, they have been overharvested for their wood. Stay tuned for the many health benifits of the nut itself.
