So, what is the best firewood to grow? That’s a very good question and the answer is actually another question. But, that question does have an answer although your answer might be different to ours!

Many people have asked us why we are growing a willow coppice for firewood, instead of oak or pine. Coppicing willow will provide us with a limitless amount of firewood and benefit wildlife at the same time. It really is an amazing tree.

We are trying to be as self-sufficient and off grid as possible on our smallholding, our English homestead, with a little help from Hazel, our pup.
