Why Buy Our Palletized Firewood ?

One Third Cord (Face Cord) Premium Seasoned Buckskin Larch
Larch is the King of Western Firewoods -Superior to Birch and Fir

Ever get a load of bulk firewood dumped on your driveway or in your truck that has so much bark, dirt, gravel and other unwanted material..Does that make you fell like you got a fair deal ?

When you buy our Palletized Firewood, it is clean because it's been hand picked while stacking the pallets, this leaves the bark, dirt and rocks out of the wood and back at our yard and not your's...

Plus the customer can always tell they're getting the correct cord measure they paid for because you can see that the wood is tight stacked and the measurement can be checked. Our pallets are slightly more than a third of a cord and 3 pallets will give more than a full cord, approximately 1.2 cords to be more precise.

"Guestimating" a cord measurement by a firewood reseller can leave with 25-30% less wood than you thought you had bought. Shopping around to save a few dollars can be a waste of time if the measurements are not accurate and in our opinion, this is more common than it should be in Alberta. Getting a "cord" of firewood for $50.00 to $100 less in savings can be negated because you actually got less firewood PLUS you also buy a load of bark and dirt along withn it.

Try our pallets just once and you'll see the difference .

Buckskin Larch - If you've never tried burning Larch, you will not know why it is such a favored Firewood, in areas where larch grows the locals will not use birch. Larch burns very hot and slow with a much brighter and higher flame than birch,
it also have very little ash to clean up compared to birch. I personally find that a Larch fire is a bit more in tune with my expectations as I love the higher flames along with scent, crackle and pop.

Larch and Fir have very high quantities of Lignin, the compound found in wood that gives it strength.
The combination of high lignin and natural resins found in Larch make it dense and help it to attain the
higher BTU value when it is burned. This also makes it one of the strongest woods used in building and it is also very rot proof like cedar. Larch and Tamarack were highly favored for fence posts before pressured treated lumber because they could last for 50-60 years without rotting.

The name Buckskin Larch is more of knickname than a true species name. Buckskin Larch is actually a
standing dead Western Larch tree (Larix occidentalis) anywhere from 5-10-20 years old that is still in perfect condition. The tree will stand a long time without rotting or falling over . The bark peels off leaving a bone dry dense wood high in BTU value and resins whichwill burn hot and slow, with minimal ash. Old Timers and Locals will travel all over in search of these rare standing dead trees for their winter supply of firewood..scorning birch and even fir if larch is to found...

Note: Larch does crackle and pop as well as throw out the odd ember, however it's not a intense as a pine fire can be...so if you have carpet in front of your hearth to worry about be sure to use a screen. Although we find Larch to be as good a firewood as birch heatwise and in some cases superior, if you don't like the popping and spitting embers and this is an issue, we'll still recommend birch to be on the safe side.

All around a great firewood.

This is the very best quality birch firewood, it is hand selected for size, quality and tested for moisture content to insure optimum burning. The hand selecting means less bark, sawdust, dirt and gravel.

We have a limited supply testing out
at 21% to 28% Moisture - rated very good

Larch is a very highly rated firewood. In places like BC and the Pacific Northwest , firewood users will often choose Larch or Doug Fir over Birch. Larch and Fir have almost the same BTU output and are often long burning like Birch. The main reason people like it is that it burns nicer than birch if the birch is not perfectly dry . There is a lot less ash with Larch and Fir..birch produces a lot of ash and more clean up is required.

Moisture content of this batch of both the Larch and Fir is about
12% -17% which is considered excellent or prime.

Do you use a woodstove for heating ?

If so you should consider using our High Density Energy Logs.

Energy Logs are extremely efficient in producing heat, 2 or 3 logs will burn all night with more BTUs than the best Birch firewood. About 35% more heat value than birch !

These Energy Logs are very dense and heavy with only 3% moisture. They contain no chemicals or binders
and are made from higher BTU wood fibre.

Do not confuse these Energy logs with the saw dust and parrafin fire logs available in stores, those logs are very poor quailty and provide very little heat energy. Energy logs are economical and cost less than birch firewood, a pallet of 240 energy Logs is equivalent to almost 1-1.5 cords of birch at lower cost. Special introductory price of $550.00 per pallet (special subsidized delivery charge is available for this offer) For most people, a full pallet will easily last all winter .

Energy Logs work best in wood stoves and EPA effcient airtight fireplaces. They will work well in older open fireplaces but have a much lower flame than regular cord wood. They can be mixed with regular firewood to increase the heat output and burn time.
