Ash, cherry, willow, birch, poplar

If you look at the "Woodland Trust" website it explains about coppicing and the best trees to grow for that then you will have a lasting supply of wood if you have the space

I think you will have to plant an awful lot of fast growing trees to give you enough wood to be self sufficient, it takes a lot longer to grow wood, than it does to burn it, you really need a well managed mini forest, Derek.

All cut wood should be stacked for 2 years before burning.
My son failed to do this, and had to have his chimney relined, very expensive mistake.

We have a whole drive full of "emplacements" each of which is full of cut wood waiting to be burned - in strict order, of course, but we buy ours from a dealer. Our friends used to be self-sufficient in firewood, and had a large expanse of established woodland (about 2 hectares) just to supply the one house. They gave up eventually, as the amount of work involved became too much for them. If I remember rightly, they had poplar, sweet chestnut, walnut and sessile oaks, but these hadn't been planted specifically with burning in mind. We cut down some conifers at one stage, and the logs are now more than 2 years old, but we burn them quite rarely because they are so resinous and it doesn't do the chimney any good at all: maybe when we are lighting the stove and need a sharp, brief, hot flame to get things under way.

We have had wood burners for many years and agree wholeheartedly that wood needs to be 'seasoned'
About a year at minimum I think.....and dry, ....thats very important
as is how strong......and which way......the wind is blowing......!
