These guys keep their dump truck parked on the busy road in to town, I drive past it every day. I couldn't stand it I bought another load. $200 and dumped in front of my woodshed.

I asked the guy just what wood it was and he said a mixture of red oak and white oak. Zero rot.

I do see white oak bark and red oak splits, so that part is right!
Nice score.
 
Looks to be about a cord. Nice score for the oaks, green or not.

That's a nice deal.

How is the wood shed ventilated?

through the wood walls itself - many posts (discussions) on this website over the last few years about this particular shed...
