Serving the St Johnsbury, Vermont Area

St Johnsbury sits in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom, surrounded by working forests that have supplied quality hardwood for generations. The area’s maple syrup industry creates a steady supply of mature sugar maple, while sustainable forestry practices ensure oak, birch, and cherry remain abundant. Local wood burning is a way of life here, with many homes relying on wood as primary or supplemental heat through Vermont’s famously long winters.

Tips for First-Time Buyers

• Ask about moisture content testing – properly seasoned wood should be below 20% moisture for optimal burning and minimal creosote buildup
• Inspect split wood for signs of proper aging like darkened ends, loose bark, and that distinctive hollow sound when pieces knock together
• Calculate your seasonal needs: a typical Vermont home uses 3-5 full cords depending on size, insulation, and how much you rely on wood heat
• Arrange delivery before peak season (October-November) when demand surges and scheduling becomes challenging
• Ask about stacking services if you can’t handle the physical demands – proper stacking prevents waste and pest issues
• Inquire about mixed loads combining different species for various burning needs throughout the heating season
