Do cypress trees still grow in the United States?
Absolutely! Even though cypress trees are considered a commodity, there is a large quantity of cypress trees from which to harvest. The annual cypress production is about 100 – 120 million board feet (6,000 – 7,000 truckloads). Some of the leading cypress product manufacturers, like BK Cypress Log Homes, participate in reforestation of cypress trees, and it is generally believed that cypress trees are growing at a faster rate than current harvesting.
