I've never been far enough ahead on cherry to keep any for 18 months! I was fortunate enough to get a few cords of already seasoned rounds last year. I've been able to split and sell immediately, which has been really nice. Maybe you can send a couple cherry logs my way so I can add to my inventory?
I purchased four face cords of mixed hardwood for my Dad this weekend from my local logger. He provides generous ricks, so almost five face cords. $240 + $10 delivery fee. This is why I drive 60-80 miles to the Nashville area to sell my firewood. Spent four hours re-splitting and stacking half of it. https://youtube.com/shorts/GCo0pbRT2qo?si=BbZmFqRX2AyHnO6F
My elderly parents like to keep the house at a constant 75 degrees throughout the Winter. My Dad has a big box stove in the garage that has a duct and blower that feeds into the HVAC lines. They plow through around 6-8 cords a Winter. With my Lopi Endeavor NexGen I'll maybe burn through 4-6 face cords. So that big dump of firewood might last a month in the coldest period.
"The Big Guy" would want 10% percent of my firewood. At least that is his normal cut from Hunter's deals.
Did a little clean-up job for my coworker Friday, he had a few cherry and a small pecan tree he wanted cut too. Brought it home in 16" rounds...
We got the older cherry logs cut, won't take long for it to dry... Then we unloaded the new cherry on the truck... Hope to get this split and stacked in the morning
We did it that way before we got a tractor. We had it in short logs, was gonna bring it home on trailer with tractor. Tractor started acting up and it also started raining.
We took down a nice cherry on our place, making room for a power line On the ground We got 52' of good logs Got this processed and finished this shed last night...
Love everything about cherry. Beautiful wood. Easy to process. Short drying time. Great for smoking. Great for burning. Good stuff! Nice job jeff
I primarily sell white oak and hickory, but cherry is what I drop everything on my schedule for if I can cut or buy it. No other seller around Nashville has it in large quantities, so the cherry market is easy money for me.
Had a white oak delivery today in Brentwood, Tn. to a three year customer. My JD manager just happened to contact me yesterday afternoon and we agreed to meet up close by. A :90 minute drive for both of us. He paid me with six bottles of the good stuff.
