Why we sell firewood

Local people, caring for a local woodland.

Fire & Stars is based at Nethercote Wood in Newton Burgoland. Behind the camping, walks and woodland sauna is the everyday work of caring for this place.

Buying your kiln-dried firewood from us helps support the local business caring for this woodland.

Suitable timber. Useful warmth. Ongoing care.

Ash dieback is changing our woodland. Active management puts suitable timber to use and helps us plan for the woodland’s future. Our firewood service brings that purpose into everyday life.

The work continues beyond tree removal.

Caring for a woodland means thinking about what comes next, alongside the trees and habitats already here. Management, restoration and habitat provision are parts of that longer-term responsibility.
