The Passing of the Hickory
The article warns that hickory wood is vanishing across many states, impacting tool and construction uses like ax handles and hammer handles. Hickory is slow growing, and plantings are needed to replenish supply. Some trees remain in Missouri and similar latitudes, but New England and several midwestern states have seen major declines. Planting hickories as street shade trees could revive supply and enjoyment of the nuts and shellbarks.
