3ft lengths?! I hope u mean 3m? Near as worthless otherwise I'm afraid.

[Jrfarms]

Nope 3ft

It was all gonna go in the biomass/whatever will burn init boiler but round bales are a lot easier and less hassle

So is it willow coppice that you have been growing?

I wouldn't say its worthless, if you can load it into a bulker with a loading shovel and tip it the other end it would be perfect for billets.

No I believe they where all self set. In the recent bad weather I've had 60 or so come down along our river bank. We just don't the space to keep it dry for 2 or 3 years

 

Yes I'm loading with a teleporter. Sent a couple of loads out yesterday and haven't had any complaints haulage seems to be the killer atm tho

Not going to help with the current lot, but are you aware of J S Wright & Sons Limited of Great Leighs (contact Nick Wright)? You must be down near Dunmow? In which case you're about the same distance from them as we are and I know they are keen on having more riverbank sites in the area.

 

We have an arrangement with them over cricket bat willow on our river bank. Basically, they supply the trees, plant them, do the maintenance and then harvest after 15-20yrs, paying market price for the timber.

 

Since it would appear that you may now have a relatively clear riverbank, this might be relevant
