Plea of the storm damaged tree..

Plea of the storm damaged tree - save me from the firewood axe..

 

This is the title of a half page advert I placed in our local paper after a storm up here in the lakes in 2005..i saw so many windblown trees being cut up for firewood I wanted to do something about it..

 

One guy had a load of Western Red Cedars go over, another contractor priced to burn the lot, we looked at it and tidied it up and milled it..he didn't know what he was going to do with it at the time..now theres a lovely shed made from the trees exactly where they stood..

 

The council had a load of Poplars go that we made into car park fencing, still there today !

 

So if these winds do cause some windblow think sideways as it can always be used for something more than firewood..

 

And if you need any help making it into something give us a shout
