Has anyone on AS ever participated in origanizing a free firewood program in their community?
Because of a new yard waste ban in our community, we as civic leaders are looking to find ways to help reduce wood waste going to our landfills, as well as help homeowners who heat their homes with wood.
Our County provides falled wood permits to anyone who would like to take fallen timber from our County parks. Via our connection with County Special Services, we could go a step further and have standing dead trees fallen, so we could take it from there.
It is the local civic association that would organize the collection of wood from neighbors removing trees as well as harvesting dead wood from the parks.
I am interested in any input from folks who have done something similar, to help identify any pitfalls we might overlook.
