🌳 Why Harvesting Cork Doesn’t Hurt the Tree 🌳 1️⃣ Natural Regeneration: The cork tree is the only species whose bark regenerates itself after each harvest. The bark grows back completely, acquiring a smoother texture each time. 🌱 2️⃣ Sustainable Harvesting Cycle: The cork oak tree is harvested every nine years, typically between May and August, during its most active growth phase. No trees are cut down in this process. The bark is carefully removed without causing any damage to the tree. 🌍 3
