I know this is an odd question, and I am not sure if it belongs in this
section. But can anyone identify what tree this branch came from. I have
a stack of it in my yard that a friend gave me but have no clue what it
is. My guess would be cherry wood? It has redish-like bark, and under
the bark is a layer of brownish, under that layer is a yellowish color
and under that is a whiter color of wood. Anybody have an idea of what
it is? I basically need to know if it is toxic or not. Thanks.

If those were cut in my neighborhood, It wouldn't be uneasonable to
identify those as mulberry branches. At least, tha's what immediately
came to mind when I looked at them. (Mulberry chips are pretty good
for smoking or grilling.)

Cherry would have shinier bark and more distinct lenticles.
