 Green Cherry lumber HELP

I don't have an answer, but an additional related question. I am removing a large group of very mature (48 year old) Pistachio trees. It makes beautiful lumber and is really hard to find this large. Is there a market for this? Any commments from wood experts would be appreciated.

 Green Cherry lumber HELP

Tracer,
The wood is a lot like black walnut. Very hard and dense, but with less inclusions. Our orchard is all grafted, and where the wood goes through the graft there is a significant color change from a dark walnut to a golden streaky color. Unusual to be sure. It planes nice and seems to be good to work with. I'm thinking this is a good excuse to buy a portable bandsaw mill. Of course the bigger problem in marketing the wood is properly drying and storing it beforehand. Thanks for the input.
