Red Oak
From his very first NBA season, Michael Jordan’s talent was clear. One of a kind. The best player I’ve ever seen. He inspired legions of fans over the course of his career. In 1986, Larry Bird even compared him to God.
Today, Michael Jordan’s legacy lives on. Young and old alike know his name. Now, imagine a world without Michael Jordan.
In the world of hardwoods, there is red oak—a name on the tip of every home owner’s tongue. A tried and true classic worthy of God. The wood of choice for churches for decades.
A world without red oak would mean a world without its most important source of hardwood lumber in North America. It would mean no beautiful red oak furniture, flooring, cabinets, panelling, and interior finishing. Animals like deer, elk, moose, rabbits and birds would have no cover or nesting sites.
As flooring, red oak stains very well into a wide variety of colors and its visible grain gives off a warm and rich appearance.
