Firewood deals after Corona? What you think?

YES it does!

 

NO ? Who knew ?

 

This is the best thing I've ever read about firewood!! I totally agree as well. I have a deal with my neighbor - he comes over to help me split and stack and then he gets to take away as much wood as he wants.

I also will help someone css just for fun. That's the best part.

 

Maybe for another thread:
Why wood heating is not part of the so called "renewable" solutions ?
Class? Too much physical effort ? Pollution myth ? Variability of the heat for many using 100% wood heat ?
Imagined "clear cutting" hysteria ? What ?

 

Wood is counted as renewable. And is a large percent of the Mega Watts. Usually next to trash. That’s power anyway.

Current fuel mix in New England
8% is renewable
Of that 8%, 32% is wood and 40% is trash

 

The perception, the marketing, the media.
Yes, it is by data "renewable along with "trash".
Bu t--not the vast pedling of solar and wind , or subsidies.
Here in Maine, EPA wood stoves are NOT in the Efficiency Maine rebates.
And, Maine has more wood heat homes than Vermont, also high in the U.S.

 

They most certainly were in the program that ended in 2018.

 

Total yes as % of population... NO

"ENDED"

 

Im in the opposite camp as I don’t burn any, but only sell right now. (Except some campfire wood) my prices vary depending on what time of year, how green and who it is. I have guys that buy 3 cords of hardwood at a time, not even asking the price, and some that only do 1/4 cord as thats what they can afford. I have sold for about 8 years, so a lot of customers are older and no matter how much I lower the price, they pay me more. I make it good practice to avoid the crazy ones, and focus on the good folks. Has worked excellent and gave away some wood last year, couldn’t be happier. I have a lot of old guys who realize how much work it is. I’m young and enjoy it. Not as profitable as a business, but it pays my saws, truck and trailer. Keeps me less fat.
