What to Know About Kindling

Kindling is the backbone of any successful fire—small, dry pieces that catch flame quickly and burn hot enough to ignite larger logs. In Vermont's climate, quality kindling becomes essential during shoulder seasons (October through November, March through April) when larger wood alone struggles to ignite in damp conditions. Hardwood kindling delivers roughly 24–28 million BTU per cord, depending on species like oak or hickory, and should be stored with moisture content below 20% for reliable ignition.

Custom Carpentry and Rick's Firewood can advise you on the right quantity for your needs—whether you need a single bundle for occasional use or regular deliveries throughout the heating season.

Why Delivery Matters in Stowe

Stowe's elevation and unpredictable spring weather mean firewood delivery eliminates the hassle of hauling from a distant supplier. Standard cordwood measurements (full cord = 128 cubic feet, half cord = 64 cubic feet, quarter cord = 32 cubic feet) help you plan exactly how much you need. When ordering, ask about delivery windows and whether they can advise on storage to keep your kindling dry until use.
