Hi guys,
SWIMS FOAF asked me to ask you guys if any of you or your FOAF's have had any experience with Acacia's. Hes wondering what part of the bark is best for collection, and if it is the inner part, would it be better for the tree if a branch was removed instead of damaging the main trunk.

Thanks
 
use all the bark you collect(dont waste any) if its Obtusifolia or Acuminata use the phyllode matter as well, find out the info specific to your acacia.
Please try your hardest not to harm the tree! if you rip bark off it willy nilly, it will get infected, sick and die. cut a limb off and make sure you know how. How to Cut a Limb from a Tree: 8 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow
BTW. which acacia you using?
