Providing free firewood heating assistance to our qualified neighbors.

 

Our goal is to split and stack an additional 12 cords firewood before Thanksgiving!

The good news is that we stacked 3 cords last Saturday!

With many hands, especially those who don’t want to or can’t operate power equipment, we can meet that goal and even our stretch goal of 20 Cords!

Upcoming Events

Saturday, October 7

We need volunteers to stack firewood! That is the primary activity for this workday.

We may also burn the debris pile. The burn was scheduled for September 30, but we were not able to do it then, so we will try again.

Future Workdays

Mark your calendars! The following are the Woodlot Workdays:

  • Saturday, October 14
  • Saturday, October 21
  • Saturday, October 28
  • Saturday, November 4
  • Saturday, November 11
  • Saturday, November 18 — Fall season wrap-up

Individual cutting and splitting teams are scheduled on several weekdays. If interested, send us a note to confirm times.

Delivery Coordinator Needed!

A Volunteer is needed to help coordinate the delivery of split firewood.

Delivery will start in November, but some planning and logistics details need resolving before then. No prior experience making deliveries required.

If interested, please contact us, and we will talk details.
