Topped off a bay in my friends shed with some splits from Saturdays cut. 3/4 cord total filled up. Have a half cord going out tomorrow
Half cord delivered and stacked today. Added to his half cord from post #276 above. I have another customer who will take a cord early. Ill be working on that soon
Delivered a half cord of bark on to a regular yesterday. She bought a half cord of the same back in May but I forgot to post here. She will take three more half cords whenever I want to bring them. I have a barkless BL honey hole cut near her that I'll need the vegetation to die off in order to cut. She is a bit farther than usual so I'd prefer to kill two birds with one stone. Ill bring the next load next month. The small amount of barkless I cut was in the way at storage along with some I cut in the Spring. Called another regular close by and he took it early. Close to a face cord.
Load of bark on black locust delivered to a regular today. CSS July of last year. She'll get two more loads by years end.
Gotta ask Brad, when you have a "specialty" item like quality dried black locust, how much of your customers have first hand experience burning this and "know" how good it is, versus ones who just want a "good burner" that burns when started? Like the crack dealer, do you sometimes include in your regular loads some BL logs to get newbies addicted?)) I don't sell firewood, but always like to know the "marketing" behind high end items! Nice hoard there....you are about to inspire me to cut some diseased mulberry (popcorn disease, so no fruit) trees.... "The only time the world makes sense to me nowadays is when I am splitting firewood...."
I wont include any with "normal" firewood deliveries. Any sold is 100% BL in the load although sometimes its mixed with other primo woods, but only in shorts/nuggets. Ive usually give a brief tutorial on it when on FBM and I'll tell them to do their homework then call me. First time BL customer last year complained about burning it. Here's that thread Cant Stand the Heat! Mulberry kinda rare around here and I get a bit giddy when I score even a little. Be sure to post pics about it. We love pics here. Oh, and welcome to the FHC!!! Glad to have you on board!
Hey there, Dixie neighbor. What part of NC do you call home? We're in middle GA. I like that quote, that's about true with me now too...... Welcome to the club, lots of great folks here sharing knowledge and humor
I am on edge of suburbia 30 min south of Raleigh in a Fuquay Varina. Just above Fayetteville, for any Army people/ Fort Bragg. I just hang out here for hurricane clean ups, lol. Appreciate all the welcomes “ The Only time the world makes sense to me nowadays is when I am splitting firewood.”
