Are Oak Trees Good for Firewood? - Nature 41

When electric blackout due to winter storms, I know some of my neighbors use woods for heating.

However, I don’t know how many people use firewood in my neighborhood, city or state.

No state law to regulate cutting tree and using it for firewood as long as the trees belong to individual.

It is prohibited or at least need permission to cut down a tree in the state or federal conservation areas.

Sure, there are local ordinances to protect specific trees.

The specific trees to be protected may include:

- historic trees
- heritage trees

An Oak is not included as a protected tree in our state, hence, commonly used as firewood.

Some of our neighbors familiar with woods of red oak, it is because the woods are considered strong, hence, it is believed to produce the best heat.

Do you ever use firewood?

  5. La leña para calentarse uno y cocinar ya no es muy habitual, más que nada por la deforestación de los bosques. Un abrazo.

  8. No uso leña y me da pena que talen los árboles.
    Es un crimen contra la naturaleza.

    Saludos.

  12. We have specific firewood cutting areas but need to drive about 3/4 hour to get there. Lovely to have a fire inside in winter, but I worry about the added pollution. Enjoy your week. I am joining you at Mosaic Monday,
