Recycle Your Trees Through Fire
You probably have a lot of trees on your property. But have you ever thought about using those trees as resources to make a fire? There are many different types of trees that can be used and all of them are good resources to make fire. Here we’ll discuss the different types of trees that you can use as resources to create firewood.
Ash Trees
Ash is a hardwood tree that grows in the north and east. It has gray-green leaves, white flowers, and reddish cones. Because of its hardiness, ash is an excellent choice because it burns hot and clean. Ash can be used for cooking as well as heating your home in wintertime or summertime with its dense heat output. You may also want to use it when smoking food like pork chops or ham slices over an open fire.
Cherry Trees
Cherry trees are hardwood trees that grow in the northern hemisphere. They are most commonly found in Europe, Asia, and North America. Cherry wood is a light-colored wood with a reddish color, which makes it perfect for burning. The cherry tree’s bark is smooth and dark compared to other types of woods like oak or ash branches.
Douglas Fir Trees
Douglas fir is a softwood tree, which means that it’s not very durable. However, if you’re looking for a tree that can be used for burning and will last long enough to provide heating through the winter months, then this might be the right choice for you. The Douglas firs’ trunk reaches up straight from ground level until it reaches about 20 feet high before branching out into branches similar in appearance-shape to those seen on other coniferous trees.
