I have a fair sized Willow in my backyard I'm going to take down this winter. It's one of the 'curly' willows.
I've seen a few stands in the area selling small bundles of curly willow branches for quite a bit. So I'm going to contact the people that run them and see if I can sell the curly branches from my willow to them.
With the rest of the tree.. I was planning on just chopping it up and using for firewood, unless perhaps somebody else would be able to get a more productive use from the wood.
I do not know how tall it is or it's age, but I figure these pictures I'm attaching should give a good measure.
On the picture of just the trunk, it measures about 3' at the skinniest part just above the flare.
Should I go with my original plan, or would is the wood useable enough that somebody may wish to purchase it from me for other purposes..?
Thanks.
