Well seasoned, nice mix of ash and hazel. Pound for pound (or kilo for kilo), the cost of wood in our bags is equal to or cheaper than the price of firewood sold in dumpy lots. Ten bags are equivalent to one dumpy load. Our bags are reusable, unlike dumpy bags, so they can be returned for refill/reuse.
All our firewood comes from our wood, Coombe Wood, which is sustainably managed to promote and protect wildlife, providing natural habitats for birds including rare red kites, deer, badgers, and much more, as well as enhancing the delightful walks through the two footpaths.
We donate 50p for every sack sold to our chosen charities Sexey's school and Bruton Library.
Soon after moving into Coombe Farm, we quickly realised that the wood needed some serious help if it was to survive for the next generation.
We enlisted the services of Peter Munford of Oliver Lang and Brown, who analysed the status of the wood, and provided us with a management plan. It was obvious from Peter's report that the wood had not been managed for a long time. Trees were overcrowded, and had become "leggy" as they strived for light far away in the tree tops (canopy). As a consequence, light coming through the canopy was limited which resulted on minimal biodiversity.
