The Alder Tree is one of the many Trees found in the Hearthlands. Trees are a plentiful resource and they are vital to every player's success.

Some of the most basic materials a hearthling will require such as Boards, Wood Blocks, Boughs, and Branches are only obtained from Trees.
Every tree has some sort of Seed which the player can use in various recipes, or they can be used to regrow a higher quality tree, producing better materials.

Materials Produced

The Alder Tree produces:

You may harvest up to 20 Branches before it is depleted.
You may harvest up to 3 Bark before it is depleted.
You may harvest up to 2 Alder Catkin before it is depleted.
Additionally, Alder Trees also contain up to 3 Alder Bough

All Trees will slowly replenish harvested materials, meaning all materials listed above are renewable.


The Alder Tree produces 2 logs when felled. With each log producing:

Blocks per log:
40 blocks when cut with a Stone Axe.
50 blocks when cut with a Metal Axe.
Boards per log:
12 boards when cut with a Bone Saw.
20 boards when cut with a Metal Saw.
