November/December

We ordered 2 cords of wood to get us through this winter.


Two cords is a lot of wood!

Our neighbor's brother delivered the wood for us.



We also ordered 2 yards of gravel.  We used most of it to cover the floor in the wood bin, and used some to improve the drainage along the dooryard side of the house.

We shoveled all of the gravel in onto the floor, and then Justin built the racks to hold the two cords of wood.

Half of one rack is done.

Ensuring that it's level...
Then, we moved all of that wood into the wood bin. That took a whole day.

Beautifully stacked wood, and the proud farmer.
By January, we had moved about half way through the first cord.
