After a sizzling summer its nearly time to light the log burner, get cosy and enjoy the delights of autumn. You can order logs from RT Farming throughout the autumn/winter to keep you warm at home.

Ash, oak and some birch and sycamore is collected from local woodland which is felled as part of sustainable management practices.

Fill up your log store with a full pick up load or get a ton bag to keep you going. If you want a small amount for an occasional burn, nets are available. With free local delivery and a stacking service available (at extra cost) its easy to get your fuel sorted. Call or message to order today!

The Firewood Poem

Beechwood fires are bright and clear

If the logs are kept a year,

Chestnut’s only good they say,

If for logs ’tis laid away.

Make a fire of Elder tree,

Death within your house will be;

But ash new or ash old,

Is fit for a queen with crown of gold.

Birch and fir logs burn too fast

Blaze up bright and do not last,

it is by the Irish said

Hawthorn bakes the sweetest bread.

Elm wood burns like churchyard mould,

E’en the very flames are cold

But ash green or ash brown

Is fit for a queen with golden crown

Poplar gives a bitter smoke,

Fills your eyes and makes you choke,

Apple wood will scent your room

Pear wood smells like flowers in bloom

Oaken logs, if dry and old

keep away the winter’s cold

But ash wet or ash dry

a king shall warm his slippers by
