We live in Washington State where trees are grown for lumber, paper and furniture and we have all sorts of wonderful trees. Washington is in fact referred to as the Evergreen State. We also have some fairly windy storms and lots of rain causing occasional flooding in the winter. This coupled with the fact that we have lots of shoreline in the Puget Sound area, means that tree branches land up in the water, spend some time getting weathered and then wash up on some remote beach or local count
