Is there a clear best time of year to fell trees for firewood, from a water content point of view? I'd think winter is best....though I see no lack of professional hardwood timber cutting in the summer. Best time for skidding would be frozen ground and light snowfall. That might be 1 week of the year! LOL Though this year it might be longer...if the ground would stay frozen and snow would come!
Is spring cutting going to give the wettest wood? No leaves is easier as well.
So perhaps my question is also, is there a known amount of increased moisture content in Spring cutting, before the leaves arrive?
