Nice gesture. I came to this thread expecting to see a picture of a tree laying on the ground. But already split, now we’re talking.

You want a tree laying on the ground? Come on over, I'll saw one down for ya man. Actually there is a pine about 18" diameter that the wind knocked over during a severe thunderstorm, you are welcome to come saw it up and haul it away.

So let me get this straight - not only are you offering the kind man a tree - but a pine tree at that - no self-respecting person uses pine in a fireplace. I say I have the better deal

lol, that's why I just left it on the ground in the woods to rot which it'll do quickly enough. I wouldn't use it for anything except a camping fire myself. Grown too pampered burning only pecan wood at home which I have delivered and stacked. Love the way it smells and it sure burns clean.

That is a great deal by the way, I'm sure somebody will come grab them.

What really hurts with this deal is that it's nice seasoned wood - but we're moving and I'd rather pack up and take my clothes and computer than firewood.

For sure season hardwood already split is the better deal, but pine can still be used in the fireplace. It just needs to be seasoned like any other wood. It burns hot and fast so it's better to mix it with hardwood to have a longer burn.

I've used a mix of hardwood & pine and never had any buildup in the flue in the past 8 years. Hardwood can gum up a chimney just as bad as pine if it isn't seasoned properly. It just takes time and a covered area to keep them properly cured for winter heating.

It's free now wait until this coming January.

Nice little deal for a local out there.
