White Oak Genus: Quercus Species: alba The White Oak tree can grow from 80 to 100 feet tall ,3 to 4 feet in diameter around the trunk and can spread from 50 to 80 feet. The Oak tree grows upright and its bark is whitish gray . The life span of the Oak tree, if undisturbed is 500 to 600 years old. The Oak tree's leaves have 7 to 9 rounded points which resemble finger like lobes. In May and early June male flowers appear in slender catkins. Female flowers are not noticeable to the naked eye. The Oak tree's seeds are commonly known as acorns, they are small oval shaped nuts with a cap and they are mostly eaten by squirrels ,chipmunks and deer. The Oak tree grows in many different habitats. It can grow from seacoasts to high mountain slopes. It also can grow from wet lowlands to dry mesas. When the White oak is only a seedling it produces a taproot. The taproot plunges into the ground during a drought to bring the tree water. This taproot disappears with age and then a fibrous root system with tapered laterals grows. The white Oak tree is valued for its timber products such as furniture, flooring and pallets, cabinet making, barrel making, interior finishes, and for heavy construction. The Oak tree also produces acorns which are a food source for wildlife.

166. Wildcrafting Ethical guidelines for wildcrafting of native plants of the southwest. http://anthro.fortlewis.edu/ethnobotany/baca/Wild.htm

The Ethical Wildcrafting of Native Plants of the Southwest Wildcrafting is Stewardship of the Earth Wildcrafting is the gathering of plant material from it's native "wild" environment. Wildcrafters need to be concerned about damaging or depleting our inheritance from nature. Wildcrafters are looking for a way to connect with nature for the day and finish with some plants for food, medicine, fiber or art. Here are some recommendations for wildcrafting with integrity. Always wildcraft with thoughts of beauty. Ask yourself how much more beautiful will this plant community be when I am finished gathering. (United Plant Savers 1998) Your first concern should be about the plant community and not how many plants you need. Do not upset undisturbed native soil because it is rare and precious. Strive for zero waste; take only as many plants you can reasonably use at one time. Leave mature seed producing plants to reproduce. Know which species are at risk in the bio-region. Approach natural ecosystems with thoughts of respect and be open to clues from the environment you are in.

Janick (ed.), Progress in new crops. ASHS Press, Alexandria, VA. Acacia in Australia: Ethnobotany and Potential Food Crop Peter R Lister, Paul Holford, Tony Haigh, and David A. Morrison BOTANY THE ETHNOBOTANY OF ACACIA IN AUSTRALIA Wattleseed, an Historical Perspective Toxicity ... Table 2 Acacia is the second largest genus in Australia comprising more than 700 species (Harden 1991; Morrison and Davies 1991) and occurs in almost all habitat types. Species range in size from small shrubs to large trees and are ecologically important as 'pioneer' species where they rapidly establish cover following major natural disturbances such as fire (Christensen et al. 1981). Acacia species are commonly known simply as acacias or as wattles and Acacia pycnantha has been adopted as the Australian national floral emblem. Wattles are frequently grown as ornamentals, some are harvested for timber, while others are a source of gums or bark used in various tanning processes. Like the majority of legumes, acacias utilize rhizobia to fix atmospheric nitrogen in the soil enabling them to grow in relatively poor soils (Harden 1991). BOTANY In Australia there are two commonly accepted schools of thought regarding the taxonomy of legumes (order Fabales) and their treatment varies with institution and state. For example, The Flora of Australia (George, 1981) recognizes three distinct families, Mimosaceae, Caesalpiniaceae, and Fabaceae while the Flora of New South Wales (Harden 1991) recognizes a single family, Fabaceae (sometimes still referred to as Leguminosae by some workers) with three subfamilies, Faboideae (or Papilionoideae), Caesalpinioideae, and Mimosoideae. There has also been some debate about the placement of Australian wattles in the genus

January 3, 2000 Web posted at: 11:33 a.m. EST (1633 GMT) By John Roach Tribal knowledge kept by indigenous cultures, crucial in matters of conservation and healing, is an endangered species owing to the rapid expansion of Western technology and customs, ethnobotanist Paul Cox suggests in the Jan. 7 issue of Science Yet, as the new century dawns, he sees hope. "If we are thoughtful, I think we can use technology to support rather than erode indigenous cultures," said Cox, who works at the National Tropical Botanical Garden in Kauai, Hawaii.
