Birch bark refers to the outer layer of the bark from birch trees, particularly species like Betula pendula and Betula pubescens. It is known for its distinctive white color with black horizontal markings and has been historically used in various cultures for crafting, medicine, and as a natural material for building shelters and canoes. Medicinally, birch bark contains compounds like betulin and betulinic acid, which are believed to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
