Firewood for Solar Woodshed

This is the first year in our 12 years living in Maltby that we went through a full cord and a half of wood that has been drying for one to two years in the solar woodshed.  We contacted the Maltby  organization that provides our wood, and had another cord and a half delivered this week.

The wood is beautiful, and the smell of alder and cedar fills the yard.  This weekend, we will begin moving the wood in the wheelbarrow from the driveway to the woodshed in the pasture.  Since the woodstove will soon be 'retired' until next year, this new wood will have almost 9 months to dry before we start using it next fall.
