Back when I was a farmer in Ohio, I used to sell a bit of firewood on the side. I'd make deliveries into the better Cleveland neighborhoods for something like $150 seasoned, delivered, and stacked for 1/4 cord of quality hardwoods. I was young and strong back then. We'd heat our own home each winter with about 7 cords of wood from the seconds of producing marketable firewood.
7 cords? Thats a bunch of wood. We use 1 1/2 - 2 cords a winter. Wood is our only heat source. That soapstone stove is very efficient.
