" In the depth of the woods, nature leaned into me; shading the ache of humanness with loyal loving trees."
Angie Weiland-Crosby

The native range of the Scarlet Oak tree extends from Maine to Florida and west to Missouri. The first scientific observations of this tree were made in 1691. Fast growing, and tolerant of a range of soil types, it will grow to have a rounded grown, to a height of 60- 80 feet, providing light shade. Scarlet oak acorns are an important food source for many large songbirds, wild turkeys, grouse, squirrels and white-tailed deer.
