Dear Gordon,

Most of the English Oak that you and others are using is currently obtained from France and also from the former soviet block countries.

I don't really think that you need to spend to much time worrying about sustainability issues since as a user you are really unable to control felling decisions which are made on the basis of many and complex criteria.

No two woodlot owners will make his or her decision to fell based on the same criteria.


Regards

Ken Hume
