Our Seasoning Process


Harvest

We use ethically sourced wood from our friends at Abbott Tree Care.

Cut and Split

Split logs have more surface area, helping the wood dry more evenly.

Stack

Proper firewood stacking allows air to circulate around the wood.

Dry

Our wood is left to dry naturally in the open air for months on end.

Store and Burn

Once the wood is dried, it’s ready to be stored or used for burning.

When dealing with freshly cut or fallen wood, also known as green wood, it usually holds about 50 percent of its weight in moisture. This makes it less than ideal for burning for a few reasons. First, the high moisture content makes it tricky to start and keep the fire going. Plus, green wood doesn’t have the delicious smoky flavor seasoned wood brings. On top of that, it can put a damper on the fire’s temperature. So, it’s best to let that wood dry out before tossing it into the fire.
