“Land of Tall Women and Virgin Pines” is a very unofficial slogan of the Piney Woods in East Texas. Some say that it used to be called “Land of Virgin Women and Tall Pines.”
 
In 2006, East Texas began to brand itself as “Texas Forest Country” and sought official slogans.

Evidently, the slogans “Deep East Texas” and “The Pineywoods” are not all that attractive to the folks outside of East Texas.

Re: Farewell, Piney Woods
Thanks for this info, Jack. I feel so much better. Yesterday I was just a hick from the Piney Woods. Today I hail from the Texas Forest Country.

Perhaps they could add my favorite East Texas slogan to that name to dress it up a bit further:

“Texas Forest Country—The land of tall women and virgin pines.”
(It speaks to my inner hick.)

Richard hails from a small little place on the southern border of Oklahoma. You may have heard of it….........called Texas! He grew up in a town called Linden, which is located “In the land of the virgin pines and tall women”, with a guy known as Don Henley.

When I studied forestry at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas, I heard people call East Texas the “land of tall women and virgin pines”!
