The oak tree is the most common, found almost everywhere except deserts and icy tundras. Its wood is highly versatile, ideal for crafting planks, sticks, fences, and ladders. Apples drop from oak trees, providing essential food early in the game. The neutral tone of oak wood complements both rustic and modern builds.

Birch
