My buddy and I were gonna start a website, ratemywoodpile.com because we're overly impressed with the levels people go to, to stack simple firewood. I myself am a bit "anal" and don't like my hardwoods mixed. Obviously I keep my cured wood away from my new splits and I am partial to fruit wood. I burn in a fireplace, so the aroma and burn of the wood plays a critical part in my evening. Ladies love a good fire, its cozy, warm and welcoming. That being said. I offer my left over stacks from this past winter.
That's Cherry on the left, very aromatic, hot burning. Black Walnut on the right, musky, slower burning. The little junk piles are Mulberry, heavy, slow burning. Boxelder and Ash. Both of those are hot, and fast burning. Two of my favs to burn are any type of oak, for the coals and shag bark hickory. I never cover my piles as the dampness makes the wood burn(smolder) longer and you get more from it. So am I alone?View attachment 291119View attachment 291120View attachment 291122
