This has been my go-to pellet since Okanagan went under. I've always liked the way they burn with extremely low ash and lots of heat, but this year's pellets are somehow even better! I would usually have to give the pot a quick scrape once a day or every other day, but it's been a few days in and nothing, the pot is perfect. The dust content did increase slightly within the bags, but nothing tremendous.
 
Just paid $8.99 a bag for Minuteman Douglas fir at TSC, Ouch!!, got 6 bags for $53
Saving them for the extreme cold days ahead, how much were yours?

Sadly, quality pellets on Long Island are NOT cheap. I can buy two tons of Stove Chow from Home Depot almost for what one ton of The Northern Warmth Douglas Fir cost. 🙄
 
Have almost 2 tons of the NWSDF I got 2 years ago, think they were $365 or $375/ton. $425 now. Fantastic heat, very little ash, save them for really frigid days which over the last 2 years we didn't have any. Have used 4 bags of them so far this winter, will use 2-3 more tonite thru Sun according to the forecast.

Best pellet around! They did change the size on the ton I just picked up. Smaller pellet means more fuel in the burnpot and that will provide more heat. Most expensive pellet, least amount of ash, and lowest maintenance for cleaning etc.

I got them at Fallon's Home & Hearth in North Hampton NH in 2020. Currently they sell for $495/ton, but Fallons has limited delivery options but they don't specify what those are.
East Coast Lumber in Hampstead NH has them, $489/ton, limited delivery area.
