@heldersilva66722 жыл бұрын
Curious and beautiful facts about this industry and these trees (Quercus Sauber): - The trees that are peeled for cork, actualy tend to live much longer and stronger than the non-peeled ones. This is because removing the old dead bark every 9 years helps the tree to regenerate a better and stronger bark, therefore keeping the tree more healthy. Its a simbiose industry. - The first cork peeling of a tree is only made after the first 15 years of its life. Then, its repeated every 9 years. - Quality of cork bark improves with age (number of peelings in life). Basically, the older the tree, the better quality of the cork. This also shows how this industry helps the tree being more healthy. - In Portugal, these trees are called Sobreiro. Its the National tree by definition. They are protected by law and chopping down one of these trees can get you in real trouble.

i love that. they don't use machines, they do their best to not harm the tree, and it's better for the environment than plastic.

Would you rather be stripped apart. Then you regrow your skin/limbs to only get it stripped again? I don’t care tbh.

If you enjoy fishing, store your hooks in old wine corks. The corks will keep you from being hurt by the hooks and they also float in case your tackle box falls in the water.

We have 6 cork oak trees on a property in Colorado our elevation is perfect for the tree. We make our own grapes and bottle our wine with homemade cork and MMJ Farm as well.

Never throw out your real cork stoppers.... You can use them for sharpening those throw-away razors that you use for shaving! ⏩Just run the blade thru the cork and "voila!" you've got a brand-new razor again! And that cork will last well over a year doing this!⏪ Hope this helps! GOD BLESS 🌿💕🌿
