100% Local Product Sourcing

Why it is so important for us to emphasize that the majority of the firewood we are selling is from sources in our neighborhoods. We are typically trying to keep the total distance between the source of our firewood and our customer's location to an absolute minimum. 

1. It is all about emissions from trucking.  Firewood is a very dense and therefore heavy product.  The energy it takes to move a heavy product from point A to point B is not negligible: every mile a cord of firewood is transported adds about 2lbs of CO2. 
   Therefore, we are doing our best to keep this to a minimum!
2. We support local suppliers.  If we have a choice we want to support local workers and companies as much as we can.  That way, we all profit from their economic activity. 
3. Pest control.  The EPA does not want to have wood products to be shipped unnecessarily from other states.  It's all about pests that the EPA tries to keep in very limited areas. 
4. Makes economic sense.  We love saving money by operating locally so that we can pass on that advantage to our customers.  There is nothing better than keeping the price of firewood stable in these tumultuous times!
