Buy firewood in late winter through early spring for best prices and quality. Avoid peak season (September-December) when demand drives prices high.
Hardwoods are denser and burn longer with more heat, while softwoods ignite faster and burn quicker—both have advantages when properly seasoned.
You can burn well-seasoned firewood during rain if it’s been stored under cover. Focus on dry kindling and sheltered fire pits for outdoor burning in wet weather.
Oak is best for pizza ovens, providing high heat and clean burning. Maple works well too, while fruitwoods like cherry add flavor when mixed with primary fuel.
Store firewood 20-30 feet from your home to prevent insect infestations and fire hazards. Keep only 1-2 days’ worth near your door for convenience.
