Alder is the common name of a genus of flowering plants belonging to the birch family.The best-known species in Europe is the Common or Black Alder, native to most of Europe and widely introduced elsewhere. Alder lumber is an important fast growing renewable resource used in a wide range of applications including furniture, cabinets, panel systems and special products. Alder has a fine close-grained structure and is easily stained and finished.

Native Americans used Red Alder bark to treat poison oak, insect bites, and skin irritations. Blackfeet Indians used an infusion made from the bark of Red Alder to treat lymphatic disorders and tuberculosis. Recent clinical studies have verified that Red Alder contains betulin and lupeol, compounds shown to be effective against a variety of tumors.

The wood is also traditionally used for smoking fish and meat, though this usage has often been replaced by other woods such as oak and hickory. An exception is the smoked Pacific salmon industry in the Pacific Northwest.
