The white oak is native to eastern and central North America. The white oak was an important tree to many indigenous tribes providing wood, food, and wellness. The bark is typically used for its healthful properties. Our white oak bark powder is ground from Quercus alba. The powder can be used in topical applications, infusions, or extracts.
The oak's botanical name quercus comes from the Celtic words quer (fine) and cuez (tree). It is a member of the Fagaceae plant family.
