I live in Iowa and am blessed with many places to collect wild native trees with the owners blessing. There are many pasture grown trees that have become pretty gnarly because of livestock and deer and I would like to collect some. I was wondering what the best possible timing would be to collect up here, we are a zone 4.

In Iowa, I'd say the safest time would be the spring right before bud break.

Some might risk August when the trees seem to go semi-dormant in the heat.
