Winter cut live from the stump and winter cut on the mill [same winter]. This is the always the best way to make lumber. There will be less shrinkage so less checking and very little stain. The bark might even stay on.
I had to glue the live edge bark on this 6 pack carrier.
Instead of CA glue, I use a water thin penetrating epoxy. Smith's. Smith's on AmazonUseful to reinforce rotted wood, empregnate wood to make it stronger(like doing it in a vacuum pot). I've painted it on bark from some barn boards that still had their 100+ year old bark on them, and it worked to keep the bark adhered. I tried it after seeing Matt Cremona use it.
