Wood Products

Photograph of charcoaled wood from culled hardwoods. Many acres of LeFlore county soils are covered with cull hardwoods. Where the soil is well suited to tame pasture production, many land owners are removing the cull hardwoods in order to establish the area to improve pasture plants. By charcoaling the cull hardwoods a usable product is secured and a help in the cost of pasture development is realized.
