The story of barrel-aged spirits begins with a tree—a white oak tree, to be exact. Taking 80 years to mature and yielding only a few barrels, white oak protection is more important than ever. That’s where #SaveTheStave comes in.
Founded by Midwest Barrel Co., #STS is dedicated to preserving white oak forests through a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation. We’ve planted over 40,000 trees, but together, we can do more.
We’re branching out beyond our own efforts and inviting others to join us as Founding Partners.
