Thank you for this video Adam ! I love trees, and thanks to you, I’m learning more about them. The white pine is also one of my favorites. I love the bark, the leaves, but most of all the smell. I know that sounds odd but the white pine has such a wonderful smell and I could sit with them all day. I’m looking forward to your course on trees, and I am sure I will learn so much about my tree friends in this course as I have on all your other courses. Thank you for taking the time to compile all the information featured on your courses ! I hope others will sign up for them because they offer so much information that can not be found anywhere in other courses. Your courses are so interesting and keep one’s attention unlike others who, well, are boring and have a tendency to drone on and on, never getting to what’s important. Again, thank you Adam, for all the work you put into your videos and courses !
64 here & I learned a few watching this. I'm from the NE also& see these trees regulary. Also got a few decent photos of the birds feeding on them berry types just before & during our recent snow event.
Hi Adam, I live in central Ohio and wanted to say thank you for all the information you pack into your videos. I started foraging for edibles and medicinals last year and continue to learn more all the time from you. Keep up the awesome work!
Excellent video. I used to work for a conifer specialist when a teenager, but I'd lost the knack of identification decades ago - as I moved through different fields of horticulture. Only in recent years, when I started to grow different conifers from seed, and birds joyously pulled all the labels out of the seed trays, did I find that it's becoming more necessary to know what on Earth that 25ft tree is in my garden. The only seed variety I could identify on sight was a rare New Mexican Fir (the seeds costing a - ahem - packet). The others were a bunch of unknowns until now, where I can at least make a start by identifying the family. Thank you!
Thank you, Adam. You're always a fountain of outdoor wisdom and I appreciate all that you do. I really regret missing a visit you made to Michigan while I was in the MMHC. This video is very applicable to my hunting grounds around Holly where until now i've relied heavily upon the tree and limb shapes to distinguish the finer details to ID one conifer from another. This is really going to help me run my mouth even more about the land as I walk around with friends and family 😆
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Your videos are wonderfully approachable and relatable as well as super, super informative. I have learned so much from watching. Thanks again from a fellow 'Burgher!
I grew up in central Indiana, where the Eastern Red Cedar was the only native conifer. Since moving to Upper Michigan I have gotten much better with conifers, but have always struggled with the difference between spruce and fir. Thanks
Thank you. I've been out for a walk today and precisely this question sprang to mind. I promised myself that when I got home, I'd study conifers. This is such a wonderful springboard for my studies.
I live in Cedartown. I have tried my whole life to plant and encourage cedars to actually grow here because most were harvested a century before I was born.
Thanks Adam! I will definitely come back to this video. I'm confident telling the difference between pine and larch but when it comes to fir, spruce and hemlock I get stuck and haven't spent much time trying to get past that. This video has given me a real sense of hope and inspiration. Those tips about the leaf shapes are particularly useful 💚 I of course want to delve in and get to know them all beyond the genus too!
When I was a land surveyor we had to do tree identification sometimes for boundary and or Corner identification and this is what we had to learn the same thing you're teaching right now because of course we surveyed all season
I'm trying to get employeesld by a company who IDs trees I need of trimming for power lines etc. Knowing the details will help me. This old boy scout has to dust off knowledge
These are one of the things I haven't perfected. My grandfather knew every deciduous, giving me that knowledge, but lacking of conifers in our forest. Thank you Adam 😇
Dude! Im gonna enroll in that course. I have some acreage that ive been working on under a forestry plan and this course sounds like something i have needed in my life!
Well-done and very I formative video! Here in Northern California some of my favorites are the coastal redwood and giant sequoia (in the Sierra Nevada). Also the magnificent Sugar cone Pine (Pinus lambertiana).
I am quite fond of my local conifer, the Douglas firs (Pseudotsuga). They are often left out, but they can be hard to tell apart from other trees. They are a weird middle child tree. They are not firs, more closely related to Larchs. But they look like a cross between a fir and hemlock.
a favorite uncle might appreciate some tags on all the little growing things in his greenbelt backyard, bring the local daycare kids to see nature documented
I live in California and watch all your videos just to hear your break down. I'm curious if you recommend anyone in CA to follow with your simular approach
Another great video, Adam. I'm surprised that you didn't mention the yew, or are they more of a shrub/bush. Are they even native to North America? I've always been fascinated with their berries.
Nice video as usual. We don't have hemlocks here in the UK other than a few ornamental plants occasionally but the majority of the information is nonetheless relevant here too.
Do cypress trees fit into Juniper category, or did you not include them because they don’t grow in your area? I’m on the west coast and see lots of them!
Just wish it was cheaper, man. I would love to go to your website and take your courses. Advice: trust in God, firstly. I would go for broke - and than the name of game is broke people and individuals that want to learn - need to learn; that way they can heal and eat from the very woods from which they have sprang. I know, I am a passionate person as well - like yourself - but I am also someone that is self-sacrificing. I would rather help others before myself - rather than selfish gain. Education should be free. To teach healing, should be our responsibility, firstly; that's as close as we're going to get as men - before they kill or use us. It just doesn't cater to people like me (and I get it, you're appealing to a certain crowd - trying to sell something important [and it is] to yuppies - something you can get some coin from - I get it, totally - not blaming you at all) - I make like 50-60k a year - when I get a job; otherwise, I got to take some shit-ass construction job making 35-40k a year working 14 hours a day; you cannot squeeze blood from a turnip.... (trial by blood... means something here - I implore you to try to work a 14 hour a job making less than 150 a day and try it for a few years...). It's just not possible for me to spend that kind of money on videos that you produce - not that I don't appreciate them: imagine others that could gain from your videos.... I know almost what you know - only due to your videos... I live in a garage; it's a very nice garage - seeing as I built it myself (using all those years of construction experience and money - very good at building and painting - plumbing - electric - plumbing, framing, roofing, you don't get breaks in this kind of work, but once in a while you need to eat and go to bed; I have spent three years of my life doiung construction nonstop for three to five days in a row - without sleep - you may celebrate it... I garnish it gravely. ) turning her into an apartment and a place to live; she's actually a very beautiful place to be and would miss it greatly - got all the amenities. But back to my point, you're charging like 4-600 dollars a video... You got some balls on you for sure. Or maybe you're getting rich and know something I don't about selling this knowledge to yuppies. Or, maybe, it's just knowledge you can just get for free if you just spend some time doing the work and research which you have obviously done - for free - taking it, though, for thee. Hey, man, if you just asked for like 5-15 dollars a month, I am pretty fucking sure you could make a lot more money - assuming you released a little more content to keep up with expectations of those people that pay. But who am I to say. I don't think the pope nor the president or any politician - nore doctor - are going to charge into the woods expecting results... They have the money you are currently seeking... This is why you make the video - yes? It is the people that want the video - to learn - to use.
Wow. You've come a long ways. This was an awesome video, Adam! Well done! Succinct, informative, well-edited, with zero wasted time for the viewer. I've been subscribed for quite a while, but I am hitting the notification bell after this one. I want to see more. That was good teaching.
Thank you Adam for your expertise, with your website and RUclips channels we have learned so much! We live in Southern Lancaster county, and Chester county, so we can’t help being partial to this beautiful green state. Just like the old PA license plates used to read, “You’ve Got A Friend In PA”, you sir, make it an honest reality! Thanks again brother!
Thanks for this video, very concise and informative! I believe there are at least a couple of genus that were missing: Cedrus and Pseudotsuga, which in my understanding are also conifers but with slight differences from the rest. It’ll be great if you can make another video explaining those as well. Thanks!
Great video, I really like how you explain the basic parts of the tree and what to look for. i have been an ISA arborist for 13 yrs and have gotten by with just the basic tree I D . But for me it's time to push my self to the next level, and really understanding more of the details of what i'm looking at. it will make me a better arborist ! So i look forward to taking your tree I D class ! Scott
I am located in Kansas City, Missouri, and we have thousands of pine trees, many Ponderosa Pine. My plan this year is to harvest Pine Pollen Powder, as it is a superfood, and FREE in late May and early June.
The Douglas fir (in central Oregon coast) has small leaf bases like the spruce in this video. It also does not exhibit the seed cone behavior you mentioned. It's cones are very similar to the spruce as well. The leaves are flat though, and they do show the white lines very faintly.
We have a bunch of mutants as well like Port Orferd Cedars, Leland Cyprus and Pendulum Sequoia... I've even seen a bunch of Atlas Cedars ... which are in the Pine family lol.
Thank you. I grew up in Forks, WA, and it seems like all of us knew how to especiate evergreens, which we had plenty of. Since then, I noticed that other folks tend to call all evergreens pine trees. "It's on the limb of that pine tree." "Huh? I only see Doug Firs. Where is the pine?" This video should be mandatory viewing in schools.

THANK YOU! Terrific information to begin my journey into tree identification. At 78, it is about time!

You make it easy to learn , thanks for being a fantastic resource !💛
Terrific tree ID video as usual Adam! Good to see you posting again! 👍👍🌲🌲
I always look forward to your videos! You’ve helped me learn so much through my foraging journey! Thank you!
You're so wonderful! So very grateful you make these videos.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Your videos are wonderfully approachable and relatable as well as super, super informative. I have learned so much from watching. Thanks again from a fellow 'Burgher!

Great video! Thank you from all the students out there learning. Short yet accurate and precise filled with need to know information.
Thank you, again. I learn so much from your beautiful and instructive videos.
Excellent video!
The genera-osity of your content is greatly appreciated.
Thank you. I've been out for a walk today and precisely this question sprang to mind. I promised myself that when I got home, I'd study conifers. This is such a wonderful springboard for my studies.
I live in Cedartown. I have tried my whole life to plant and encourage cedars to actually grow here because most were harvested a century before I was born.
Thank you Adam, I always learn something when I watch your videos if not more than one thing!😁💙💙💙
Thanks Adam! I will definitely come back to this video. I'm confident telling the difference between pine and larch but when it comes to fir, spruce and hemlock I get stuck and haven't spent much time trying to get past that. This video has given me a real sense of hope and inspiration. Those tips about the leaf shapes are particularly useful 💚 I of course want to delve in and get to know them all beyond the genus too!
Thanks for your informative videos, helping us understand and appreciate the world around us more. Cheers Adam!
Probably the best vid for tree id that I've seen. Well done.

I use juniper berries in stews,meats and tea., good video 👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Your time is appreciated!
such a solid video, thank you from a trail runner with a weird tree hunting passion
Fir trees do make the most beautiful Christmas trees. Our favorite is the Fraser Fir.
Had one last year, i fully agree! Cheers
This is really great. What a well put together video. Well done!
As always...... best ever, thank you! You've reminded me to get back to the course I started.
Hi Adam, i like your stuff, and I learn some everytime I watch your videos, thanks a lot.
So well presented. Thank you.
Excellent, excellent video! Thank you so much. I needed this refresher! I’m going to look into your class!
These are one of the things I haven't perfected. My grandfather knew every deciduous, giving me that knowledge, but lacking of conifers in our forest. Thank you Adam 😇
Dude! Im gonna enroll in that course. I have some acreage that ive been working on under a forestry plan and this course sounds like something i have needed in my life!
"Tufted Clusters" will be the name of my rock band
(pending permission from and royalties to Adam ; )
(and/or membership *with* Adam!)
"Adam Haritan and the Tufted Clusters!" sounds so much better anyway
Well-done and very I formative video!

Great video, I will definitely watch this again.
Thanks, Adam
Awesome analysis. Love from bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
a favorite uncle might appreciate some tags on all the little growing things in his greenbelt backyard, bring the local daycare kids to see nature documented
My bald cypress in the yard here in Illinois also has cones and is deciduous.
My favorite trees 🌲
White pine tea is the best! Thanks, great video.
Love your videos….I still have a few more of the mushroom series to complete
Christmas Tree 🌲 types come to mind watching this video. ⛄
Added to "favorites". Thanks.
I live in California and watch all your videos just to hear your break down. I'm curious if you recommend anyone in CA to follow with your simular approach
the video everyone needed
thank you
Another great video, Adam. I'm surprised that you didn't mention the yew, or are they more of a shrub/bush. Are they even native to North America? I've always been fascinated with their berries.
Thank you.
3 minutes and it's so helpful I want to tell somebody
If I remember correctly, white pine was used for the kings navy mast... look into it
Nice video as usual. We don't have hemlocks here in the UK other than a few ornamental plants occasionally but the majority of the information is nonetheless relevant here too.
Great video. But why does it feel like this is non-sync sound?
love conifers
great info!
My favorite was larch
Great!
No. 5
The Larch
You mentioned Norfolk Spruce is that the same as what we call a Norfolk Pine?
Do cypress trees fit into Juniper category, or did you not include them because they don’t grow in your area? I’m on the west coast and see lots of them!
Which pine tree drops thousands of very small white seed like things?
I know recognise the larch from quite a long way way.
There tend to be pinecones below them or still on ..your welcome
Hi, coming from europe, i have trouble distinguishing douglas fir needles from the real fir needles. What is the difference?
What mushroom is that?! @ 7:50
Hello there i live in the netherlands would this course apply for my region too?
Which spruce has Pine nuts?
Juniper berries cured my gramps of sickness. He was really sick.
Thank you:)💛~~~~~>💓°•○☆💕
Edit: I agree~ Definitely watch a couple times🖒:)
1:03 whats that? Looks delicious
❤❤
Thank you for this video! You’re always very informative and interesting.
Up until a few weeks ago, I did think these evergreens were all pines.

Very important and educational blog

Just like the old PA license plates used to read, “You’ve Got A Friend In PA”, you sir, make it an honest reality! Thanks again brother!
Highly recommend practicing this on winter hikes. Very easy to do when all the deciduous trees are dormant.
Another fantastic video! Thank you Adam, cheers!
like always thank you Adam
Thanks for this video, very concise and informative! I believe there are at least a couple of genus that were missing: Cedrus and Pseudotsuga, which in my understanding are also conifers but with slight differences from the rest. It’ll be great if you can make another video explaining those as well. Thanks!
Thanks bro
What CoNaFiRs do you have?..... Spiders, mostly....
Outstanding presentation of information 👍 📹 Thank you.
Hey Adam , good to see ya
Don't forget about Cypress.
And Cedars. Edit: I see that they technically in the Juniper Family.
Very informative and helpful. Thanks.
I couldn't help but notice your website avoids all mention of how much the course costs.
Great video, I really like how you explain the basic parts of the tree and what to look for. i have been an ISA arborist for 13 yrs and have gotten by with just the basic tree I D .
