Are Oak Trees Expensive

Oak is not a small tree, it is expensive & for much the same reasons as other non-softwoods for example teak, mahogany etc. They all grow relatively slowly & take generations to mature. The payback, for organisations planning to plant grow & harvest, will be poor & a long time coming.

Can you buy a fully grown oak tree?

Southern Pride Tree Farm sells mature live oak trees ranging from from 2.5″ caliper to 14″ caliper (caliper is diameter of the trunk) or from 10′ tall to 35′ tall. The big Live oak trees we sell are all field grown (FG) trees meeting the highest standards for the strongest most healthy trees for our customers.

How much is a 100 year old oak tree worth?

A 100 year old tree would be worth considerably more – having one grown and moved in, plus after-care until it is established, would cost a theoretical maybe $50,000-$100,000. And demand punitive damages as well.
