Our goal is to provide really good dry wood, in order to do that you always have to be working a year ahead. So we are constantly processing and purchasing logs, logs are cut first into rings either with chainsaw or by a machine called the blockbuster, sometimes the rings are not split immediately but the drying process has begun. There is a photos of a digger using a spiral splitter this is to make the really huge logs that come into our yard manageable to work with. (The true Old Man Pine trees, sometimes only one tree comes in on a logging truck they are so big). Once logs are ringed then they are split either straight into the drying cages if well seasoned after travelling up a conveyer belt, and lots of the small bits of wood are separated at this time. Or made into windrows (this is usually for green wood which is processed then left to dry as much as it can in the windrow then handsorted into bins after about 8 months to finally get the last of the drying done.

• Macrocarpa - is hot burning and does not need to be stored undercover as long as has good windflow. Once dry macro does not re-absorb moisture
• Oregon - Drys quickly a lovely smelling wood that has a natural resin that promotes burning
• Gum - Burns hot and long, takes a lot of drying but once dry does not re-absorb moisture
• OMP - Old man pine burns hot, great wood for the price, can be kept undercover but generally will still be fine if stored outside but ideally a bit of cover best
• Forestry pine – needs to be stored ideally undercover as can soak up moisture. Burns quickly when perfectly dry great for starting fire but should really be mixed with a hard wood for best performance.

We do our best to keep the wood no longer in length than 300 to 350mm, if you require smaller wood or larger wood ring us as we can usually sort for you.
