    My brother works on a blueberry and cranberry farm. Due to cool and damp weather had they some extra time to cut back the edge of the woods/bogs so the plane could spray better. This load is the result. All I had to do was follow him the 5 miles down the road. All maple with a small birch in the mix. There’s another 3-4 loads of gum but that can rot in the woods.

    Great deal. Nice easier size to handle. My back is starting to like easier size more and more!
    Did they throw in a few pints of berries too?
    Smart move on the gum!

    I get all the berries I want once they start picking...usually around June 10-15 or so.

    Wow! That is really early. Around these parts, blueberries come in season in August.

    Yes sir. Figured out you were on here when I noticed your hand crafted porch screen door from Facebook. Jeff was cutting back the woods along Adams bogs

    You want nothing to do with the stuff Loon , almost impossible is being very generous. Stuff just tears all the way & burns about like Cottonwood when dry.
    jrider , looks like you're getting stocked up pretty fast, that's excellent!

    I've only seen the pics, but I got a pretty good idea what 150 cord looks like. Most impressive.
