Store firewood 20-30 feet from your home, elevated off the ground, and only bring inside what you’ll burn immediately to prevent insect problems.

Cherry, apple, and oak are best for fire pits, offering pleasant aromas, beautiful flames, and minimal sparking for safe, enjoyable outdoor fires.
What size should firewood pieces be?
Firewood should typically be 16 inches long and split to 4-6 inch diameter. Measure your fireplace or stove to confirm the right size before ordering.
