(Firewood) Wanted: in NY/ PA

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

I am looking for a homesteader with some land and a chain saw=) This upcoming spring/ summer and fall, I would like to make and arrangement with someone to supply me with a cord to two cords of sawed but not split firewood weekly to biweekly. I would pay (a 4 by 4 by 8 cord) 40 dollars per cord (splitting is the hard part- right). Green wood is fine- as is mixed wood. I dont want UNSPLITTABLE stuff like seasoned gum rounds or anthing to do with elm. I also would not like very rotty wood or 'all' pine. I would need the wood supplier to be located the along the same route as my "wanted HAY" post. I would like to buy fire wood as soon as my barn is full of hay. I could possibly re route my trips a bit to come and get it, let me know and I will check.

Gosh Ken, wish i lived closer, we bought this new ranch in may and it has a sawmill on it, have enough firewood to last a lifetime and cull lumber to make a sub division.

I am in the southern tier of New York and Im currently clearing some a lot of land, I have been trading wood with my neighbors in exactly the form you are looking for but I have far more than I need. I could easily supply you but I don't know if it is too far out of your way. I also know of someone locally who has baled hay at a reasonable price. email me if you are interested.
