A great ash score

[Wood-row Wilson]

My brother was telling a friend of my impending boiler installation with his friend's response as, "Hey, does he want any ash...? I have a lot of it". Well, brother relays the information to me and I tell him I'll check it out, thinking I can wait to see if the stuff is still around in the spring considering I don't have the time now. Well, let's just say I haven't closed my mouth in awe since!



Told the friend, who I already knew, to just tell me when I need to stop. Have already taken 3 loads and there is still about 55 feet in length of the logs you see in the picture. Hopefully, the others he has offered the wood to are just making shovel handles, want to wittle or something similar. In the meantime, I'm getting back there whenever I can!

Also, my inventory so far

That is jaw dropping! He must have cleaned up a bunch of EAB. Terrible to see all the loss of trees, but very good to see you get a benefit. It's an excellent solution.

I would have "LIKED" your post if it wasn't so heart breaking to see every ash tree in Michigan die. I have been heating with ash for a few years with many more in the future. GREAT SCORE!!

Yeah, it's a shame about the borer (it's almost here, too) but that is one helluva score, so that's cool!

Nice score. Hope that borer is eradicated soon in your area. It's here too but not as bad. I still have a few decent size ash on my property.
