At G. A Frood and Co we pride ourselves on selling high quality, two summer seasoned firewood with availability all year round. Our hardwood is of a consistently high standard sustainably sourced from managed woodland in Essex and licensed to be felled by the forestry commission.
It is all coppiced woodland on regular cycles. Therefore, all of the trees are left to regenerate once cut back. The trees are felled in winter months when the sap is low so there is less moisture to dry out leaving a moisture content of 14% - 20%. Felling takes place during winter months as this reduces any disturbance to breeding wildlife which we, at G. A Frood and Co, care about in todays precious environment.
All of our timber is naturally seasoned for two summers. This process prevents tar build up in chimneys and promotes easy and warm burning. Firewood is cut to 10" but we can adjust to suit all of your requirements and desires. The main tree species used are: Hornbeam, Ash, Field Maple, Oak, Beech, Silver Birch, Lime, Sycamore and Cherry.
We hold a stock of 800 to 1000 tons of firewood at all times so our customers are never disappointed with availability. We can deliver to your home free of charge within a 20 mile radius of our farm. Beyond that there is a £2.50 a mile delivery charge.
