Would you guys quit trying to educate the non believers. If they wont burn pine, cotton wood, elm or even willow because is bad or junk wood. Let them keep thinking that especially in my area of Michigan. The less they know the more wood for me.
Scrounging enough wood for three families who burn full time and two who burn part time and trying to get all on the three year plan has been fun. Most of what we burn is cottonwood, elm, pine and a little ash now and then,
