I was just reading the chestnut thread and thinking about the spitting nature of it and some other species.

 

Do you think there might be any mileage in marketing a Stove Mix as a type of firewood. It could contain all the stuff that does spit, and may help with moving some folk away from the hardwood only to a more hw/sw mix.

 

Whaddya think?

I sell more mixed bags now than pure hardwood! I do 50/50 split of quality hardwoods mixed with stuff like Poplar, Willow and good old Lleylandii!! and I'm in an area full of Log Snobs, however I think its the price they like!

There really is no problem with selling a "Stove mix" as any dry wood will burn, especially on a wood burner. Tonight Matthew I'm burning Ash, willow, conny and apple.

All good points, what I'm on about is using the term Stove Mix to market mixed logs which you would otherwise sell as just mixed hw/sw.

 

Give it a name, market it as a special mix for stoves and charge a bit more than your standard hardwood loads/bags.

 

A bit of differentiation never hurt anyone.
