Eastern Shore Forest Products - Splitting & Heat Treating

For those who want to season their own firewood.

This fresh cut firewood has not been seasoned or dried and may contain as high as 50% moisture content. While not suitable for burning immediately, this product is an economical choice for customers that wish to season their own firewood for 9 -12 months.

Our green firewood is straight off the processors. We do not dry this firewood. At a natural moisture content of 50%, green wood is difficult to light and produces an excess of smoke, making it a poor choice for immediate use. However, for those who wish to season their own firewood, this product is split and ready to be set outside to season for 9 months to a year or longer.

While burning of green wood is possible, it is not recommended unless in an outdoor setting. This is because the excess smoke output is known to cause unsafe creosote buildup in chimneys and wood stoves, potentially leading to chimney fires.

This wood is mainly a mix of oak and maple with some other hardwoods occasionally mixed in.
