This vid had it all-foraged food, a tree faced with an existential threat, a beautiful wood with interesting qualities, great wordplay, fun facts, a unique kitchen utensil, and inventive baking. Classic Justin Davies content. Love it.
As a floridian you need to make florida out of Cyprus wood its a swamp tree and is endangered you could make a long form video on it and plus it's just a beautiful wood
@@lester44444 My favorites by far have been learning about special trees, like the sacred golden tree in Canada. I'm always looking out for more videos like that one!
It's so funny how seeing your own state in one of these videos feels special! Thanks for all the work you put into your videos-- as a baker and a crafter, I love them!!
For Montana's tree I recommend the western larch! Over here we call them tamaracks (although technically the word tamarack only officially refers to the eastern larch) and they're one of the few coniferous trees that lose their needles in the fall and regrow them in the spring! In the fall they're a brilliant yellow and in the spring they're super easy to recognize because all of their needles have that lighter green color of brand new needles!
I just googled what they look like (in Autumn and Spring) and they are SO PRETTY!! They should definitely be the tree for Montana (i'm guessing thats the state?)
I came to say the same thing as the other commentator LOL! I've just looked them up and OH MY GOD THEY ARE GORGEOUS!!! Reminds me of forests in the first Twilight movie (idc what anyone says, the 1st one is a cinematic masterpiiiiiiece). Those forest scenes were the highlight of the movie for me -- the trees looked so tall, elegant and absolutely impressive! Good god I just love nature so much 🌳🌳🌿🌿🌿
When I was a kid we used to go to my mom's childhood home to collect butternuts every fall. The people that lived there were more than happy to have someone pick up all the nuts so they didn't have to. Then dad would put them in hardware cloth wire bags so the squirrels couldn't steal them while the dried all winter. I do remember the buttery flavor of the nuts. But wow, so much work.
My grandparents here in Minnesota had a butternut tree in the backyard. My grandpa had ice cream pails full of these nuts in the sun room. I was so sad when that tree came down in a storm 😢
Ohhh that's absolutely a recipe I'm down to try - I love a moist heavy loaf, my favorite of my mom's ol reliable recipes is a zucchini bread (that we usually bake into muffins instead). Mom's not as fond of the butternut or pumpkin flavor/texture but I am! Will definitely try these. And you keep adding to my mental list of trees to plant if I ever have the pleasure to live in a place big enough to make a grove of forageables for myself!
I don't know if anyone has already suggested this (though I suspect quite a few could have), and I'm slightly scared the wholesomeness might cause the entirety of RUclips to implode, but here goes: I'd love, really love, to see a collaboration with you and B Dylan Hollis, cooking and telling us about the neat trees along with other cool tidbits of information. And imagining you two share the delight of your respective baking prowess makes me happy. Just, y'know, something to add to my Christmas wishlist. Lovely video, as always!
OH STOP. That's so sweet. I would actually die. Their video styles match up really nice together with how informative they are but also just a tad silly!
Your voice gave me Alton Brown vibes and that sir is a Huge compliment in my book! Lol great video! I’m excited to try the recipe! Very interested about the black pepper in the mix!
Someone finally made a Texas Mountain Laurel perfume/scent. I have been chasing this scent my entire life. The blossoms are only around for like a month after spring has sprung, and it’s only the “Texas Mountain Laurel” variety. Six months ago, I left a comment about this beloved tree with what has been described as an “intoxicating” scent. I’m about to douse my bedding in that scent every night to help me sleep
another cool video! I love this series. black pepper with fall spices sounds really interesting, I think I'll try it in some baking this fall. really appreciate the education on these amazing trees around america. keep making excellent content dude!
Your videos have been helping me get through what is turning out to be a difficult time in my life. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for being you, Justin. ❤
Texas Mountain Laurel blossoms are the best scent in the world. It’s intoxicating. I didn’t know Texas Mountain Laurel and Mountain Laurel were different trees until college. Come visit San Antonio in the spring. You’ll find some in bloom. I’ve never wanted to huff anything, except maybe week-old puppies and Texas Mountain Laurel.
I’m sick in bed with a stomach bug right now and this is exactly what I needed! Nothing else made me feel good but your calm voice, meditative comments, and slow education is wonderful!
i just watched this show on prime video called “a cut above”. it’s a chainsaw carving competition. super cool! i figured id share it here with you wood lovers lol. great video justin! i love how you add baking to it :)
Thank you for the timing of this video. I am moving my family to Wisconsin this weekend first time ever. Watching this really helps with the home sickness of leaving Utah.
Has anyone ever said you look like ted lasso? And honestly you have the same vibe as him too, the humor, the wholesomeness. In a different dimension ted lasso would be a wood carving fanatic and you would be a football coach
Love your videos! I grew up in Maryland with a towering Catalpa tree. I loved the pods, the huge lime green heart-shaped leaves, and the sphinx caterpillars that feed on these trees. Hoping to see you use it in your second map for my home state! Thanks for your great videos!
Butternut trees are quite literally everywhere here in Wisconsin, there's at least one squirrel that lives in my backyard and I constantly find white walnut shells all over the driveway and back porch especially in the summer, although I've never thought to try and pick any from whichever tree they come from but I bet they're delicious.
There are so many words to describe how interesting, entertaining, unique, and informative your videos are, but i’ll sum it up by saying i love them and to please keep making them!!🫶
I’ve been watching your content for a while now and feel like I’ve grown so much more more appreciation for nature. You’d be great on a podcast, I learn so much. I’d be happy to work with you as your producer and editor. Let me know! Keep up your awesome stuff 👊👊
Great recipe! Mix the nuts in with the flour. It requires less overall stirring (very important) & helps keep the nuts from slowly drifting downward during baking. Can’t wait to test this, but it’ll have to be pecans this neck of the woods. Kansas.
Could you make a video detailing your oiling process for spoons? Oil types, number of coats, curing times, etc. It's really difficult to find any consistent advice on the internet.
Amazing video, this is something I definitely want to try! I’m not sure what type of brown sugar you’re using but you may want to try and pack it even harder, it should keep its shape when you overturn it into the bowl.
Awww sweet, the baking/state map combi videos are back 🤎 Bread looks great but I'm allergic to common walnuts and don't fancy my chances much with the rest of the walnut family 🥴
I just found this channel and subscribed within 2 videos - I have never seen (and couldn't imagine) a channel which produces content on so many of my interests at once. Wood working, trees, geography and now baking???? 😍😍😍😍
Im not even sure if that would be possible at all, and even if so it would be a massive project, but it would be awesome if you did a world map with countries signature trees! This series is truly awesome, makes me want to get into woodworking everytime hahhaa
You should do Idaho in Sagebrush. It’s a beautiful wood and my grandfather used to make all kinds of office products and sell them for huge prices but they just are so beautiful.
Great video! I think it's rather funny that just last week I made a butternut squash bread and ground my own cloves/cinnamon for it. I'll definitely have to consider adding nuts, though I'd probably have to use walnuts and a little extra butter. Peace and love from Toronto ❤
Absolutely love this. I now desperately want to try a butternut, and will most definitely be making a similar loaf. 🤤 Can’t wait to see what you do for Tennessee!!
You should do the tamarack (western latch) for Oregon. Its native range is fairly small and it turns a beautiful gold in the fall before dropping its needles.
You missed an opportunity to make butter nut nut butter lol
🤣
Browned butter nut butter, butternut butter nut loaf

The fingies brought that to mind when he said that!
That's such a great idea! They both live in Western states! Probably like a 5-7 hour drive away from each other.
I've actually seen this tree! I was wondering what you'd do for my home state, and this did not disappoint! Great video!
that spoon is absolutely magical 🤩 i love these full length videos and wish they got the love they deserve😢

Your actual videos are so underrated! I hope to see your main videos get as many views as your shorts one day.

Was not expecting to get a full recipe here, but I welcome the addition! Great work on these projects!
Loved this, that bread looked fire. Please do Minnesota soon😊

I didn't even think of butternut. What a wonderful (and tasty) addition.
This has got to be the most fulfulling hobby ever, I get so happy just from seeing him work with his hands and make cool stuff. Contagious energy :)
Love the care you took to make Washington Island stand out!
This loaf looks incredible! Really enjoyed the little tree lesson, will have to watch the other videos in this series :)
Can’t wait for Wyoming and Colorado the rectangle states lol

It made me so happy to see you carving Madeline Island. A very special place to me.
Man I can’t get enough of your channel. I be checking in every day or two for a new video tbh
I am SO GLAD i took your advice Justin & came to watch your video. I love it! Fascinated with the butternut tree now(& it's nuts!!😂)
Woodworking, baking, eating… great channel, love your videos. Inspiring.
i love how you teach about the trees. and it's not just wood working. You make food. Very cool man.
I think I'm falling in love with you...wood knowledge, carving wood, and you bake too 😍
Love the idea with the map with cutouts of different types of wood. So cool.
I'm building something in butternut this week, my first project, so happy to see this wood here!
What an amazing recipe on top of such beautiful woodworking skills, you are truly an inspiration❤
Let’s see Jersey next! I always enjoy learning about my state, especially the nature side that’s extremely undervalued.
When I tell you that I could smell that butternut through the screen when you took it out the oven 😍
Man I love this guy! His longer videos are even better. Best Wishes to you mate and I've a suggestion for you. Please make a wooden clock.

Why is this the most relaxing video ever made?
Love your videos, the perfect mix of novelty, entertainment, and education!
brown butter butter nut, butter nut. butter nut mixed loaf, served on butternut wood and topped with butter and nuts
I am never entertained by these kind of videos, but this one was so entertaining the whole time! Absolutely love this guys stuff 😊
The state came out beautifully and that bread looks like sin on a plate! Your videos always make me want to get deep into a special interest.
Awesome! Very nice to learn about a Butter nut tree and an amazing new recipe!
Thanks for introducing a new tree to me and man that butternut^2 loaf looks so good
Truly marvellous video, spoon, map piece and loaf!
Have you always enjoyed baking? I love your combination of trees and cooking!
this is my new favorite channel
You are such a talented and creative young man! I'm 😊 glad that you started your RUclips channel!!
I want to see a sugar maple for Vermont 🍁 ooo can’t wait to see what recipe you use!!
Amazing woodworking skills, for Florida I’d suggest sea grape wood it’s bright red and it grows on the barrier islands.
Colorado has some cool trees that I would be super excited to see.
Ponderosa and Blue Spruce trees are native and smell amazing
I can't wait to see my FL states tree! Love learning the cool facts about the trees of each state so far
Great recipe! Mix the nuts in with the flour. It requires less overall stirring (very important) & helps keep the nuts from slowly drifting downward during baking. Can’t wait to test this, but it’ll have to be pecans this neck of the woods. Kansas.
Oooh I've never had butternut bread, but it's my favorite squash so YES!!
Love this series and I’m delighted to find another person who adds black pepper to their autumnal spices! ☺️
I actually need this spoon NOWW. I'm obsessed with it
Could you make a video detailing your oiling process for spoons? Oil types, number of coats, curing times, etc. It's really difficult to find any consistent advice on the internet.
Love the long form content as always!
dude I absolutely love your videos, continue the good work :)
Great to see another state going up, the bread recipe looks delicious, hope to see a mesquite Texas next!
Amazing video, this is something I definitely want to try! I’m not sure what type of brown sugar you’re using but you may want to try and pack it even harder, it should keep its shape when you overturn it into the bowl.

I love that I randomly got this video and I live in Wisconsin. Plus I got nature knowledge. 👍👍👍
A most excellent episode!!! ❤
At least you got the wood from a tree that died from the disease, also amazing looking browned butter butter nut squash butter nut bread.
Fun note, there's even a municipality called Butternut *in* Wisconsin along the Flambeau River in northern Wisconsin!
So glad I can skip the nuts! I have a nut allergy, and this looks amazing
Im not even sure if that would be possible at all, and even if so it would be a massive project, but it would be awesome if you did a world map with countries signature trees!
This series is truly awesome, makes me want to get into woodworking everytime hahhaa
This is a wild amalgamation of hobbies and I love it. Great content :)
I always learn so much from your videos!
Your videos are so calming and relaxing i literally fell asleep last night because of it 😂❤
Gotta do Montana! We have some really cool things you can do with juniper, diamond willow, June berry, and chokecherry wood!
These videos are great to fall asleep to
I'm so happy that you included black pepper in your loaf! It's such a great, underrated companion to the classic Fall spices.
You should do Idaho in Sagebrush. It’s a beautiful wood and my grandfather used to make all kinds of office products and sell them for huge prices but they just are so beautiful.
Really interesting videos ❤ loved it 🎉
I was thinking about your pumpkin bread video from last year and this timing was perfect! I’m going to make the break again this weekend
Fantastic video, I might try this recipe soon!!!
For NJ you should do the pitch pine, since that's the tree that makes up the pine barrens, which is the last pine barrens in America
That is beautiful! Beautiful!
You holding that 🌀spoon is giving wizard vibes
As a northern Wisconsinite, never heard of butternut before :0 Can't believe I've never heard of it despite it being in most of the state!
