Ash

Hi. Do you think there will be a drop in the firewood market due to ash dieback? Thoughts please

If anything there will be more ash being felled due to it. There certainly is around here!

Devon. Have you seen a change in the market for selling logs? Cheers

North East. If anything the firewood market is stronger than ever.

I am prepared for a slump in sales for few years while ash from local farm hedgerows comes on the market but no sign of this yet with a bumper start to this season for us.

Huge increase in the round wood market ( including oversize ) round here . All three estates ( Goodwood , West dean and Cowdray )  Have been felling all road side and footpath ash so as not to be liable should there be an accident . I'm talking thousands of tons here .

  I have just extracted some from one of those estates. Are you looking for some in that area ?
