White cedar leaf is boiled down into cedar leaf oil. A fellow that does that sells the oil in 45 gallon drums for 50g per drum wholesale. Takes a few dumptruck loads of cedarleaf for a drum of oil. Small 1oz bottles of cedarleaf oil sell for $20 retail.

Down here red cedars are preferred by the bucks for making rubs. It's not uncommon for every broom handle sized stem in sight to rubbed. I've suspect there's something to the aromatics in the sap and wood carrying the aroma from the preobital glands.
Maybe one of our lure makers could chime in on that theory? Cedars definetely have a noticeable aroma

If you have cedars that is a sure Tell sign of shitty land. Land will not perk. Cedars thrive in pipeclay and crappy land We find Cedars here mostly on swamp edges.

Here Eastern White Cedar is important for the deer in the winter. They will yard up in the Cedar groves where there is less snow and I is often a degree or two warmer there.

My wife absolutely detests cedar trees.. because of the fact that during our first Christmas together,, we had no money, so I found a cedar tree for a Christmas tree. She was vacuuming pieces of cedar out of the shag carpet for weeks.. lol

She was vacuuming pieces of cedar out of the shag carpet for weeks.. lol Dad and I were just discussing this. He said he remembered going out and cutting cedars for Christmas. Told him that my most memorable Christmas was my third one and a big cedar tree all lit up in the living room and that we made out like bandits that year. He smiled at that for some reason.

Eastern red cedar where I live is the life blood of the community. 4 sawmills in a 5 mile radius that mills them. I wouldn't say lifeblood but there is a market for them from time to time. We got one bottom on our homeplace that is thin soil over soft limerock where cedar thrives. Matter of fact we call it the cedar thicket. We leave it alone until the local buyers put out a call for it.
