Pellets have taken a large chunk of the firewood business but for some reason, wood seems to be making a come back.The young fellow that lives up the hill a bit on our private drive does a good business with processing fire wood. My guess he has had 15 or more truck and pup trailer loads delivered this year. Always "perfect processor sticks". He drove out twice with his 1 ton dump body making deliveries today.
I can't handle a truck and trailer, No place to turn around, and I run out of space to stack the splits as a full load would be several year's of heat. since I've gone to pellets as background heat.
Some pellet stoves do not heat as well and you have to spend some money for a good one if a home is not insulated optimally
