Store firewood elevated off the ground, 20-30 feet from your home, in a sunny location with only the top covered to allow airflow.
Creosote forms when smoke from wet wood or inefficient fires condenses in chimneys, creating a dangerous, flammable tar-like deposit.
Seasoning firewood should be mostly uncovered in summer for maximum drying. Already-dry wood can have its top covered while leaving sides open.
Splitting firewood accelerates drying by exposing more surface area, enables proper ignition and combustion, and creates manageable sizes for efficient burning.
Cherry, apple, and oak are best for fire pits, offering pleasant aromas, beautiful flames, and minimal sparking for safe, enjoyable outdoor fires.
