Since we burn wood for heat at our homestead, we needed to come up with a good method to cut, split, stack, and dry (season) firewood. Summer is a great time to do that because it gives the wood time to dry in time to burn it to heat our home in the winter. A huge thank you to my arborist friend who gave us two dumploads of sustainably harvested hardwood to split and use, and to Isaac and our summer intern Cole who helped tackle this project in the midst of several other huuuuge projects we've been tackling around the homestead. Finding a cheap, efficient, attractive solution for our firewood this year has been a huge help, and we got the massive pile of wood out of the pasture, so win, win win!
