Product Sources
Supplies of Eastern white pine are limited, but its availability is increasing after reaching a low in the 1940's and 1950's. Clear grade material is still difficult to obtain. Younger trees and plantations are reported to have replaced the tall straight virgin forest trees that were prized for ship masts in the colonial period.
