Greetings Herman: There are very few markets for such young and generally small black walnut trees -- they tend to have a lot of sapwood, which has traditionally been a defect in the hardwood market. However, you may be able to find a custom wood worker who may be able to utilize wood from these trees. I would contact your local state forestry agency for more local marketing expertise. Best of luck!
