Wood for winter

Jo Stretch // Thursday, 24 October 2013

Not all of us are as organised as we like to think we are and, as the temperature starts to drop, many of us visit our wood piles for the first time since Easter only to find that we really didn’t have as much as we thought we did. Ideally firewood should be ordered in September for the coming winter season however it is available throughout the year. Undoubtedly the best way to find a reliable wood supplier is word of mouth but this is not always easy when you are new to an area. A good alternative is to use www.bois-de-chauffage.net. Simply enter your postcode, select your commune and your requirements (size, type (hardwood, fruit etc) and amount and those chestnuts will be roasting in no time!
