All around, lets say you have to cut, and split, stack and then reap the burning rewards, what's your favorite firewood and why?

How does almond smell when you burn it? I would imagine it has a nice fragrance. does it split well? Also you bring up a great point renewable etc. Forester friend of mine made one of those "duh" points once about not cutting trees from your own property if you didn't need to. I use only stuff that dies from the woods around my house and get a lot of my wood from scrounges and a tree service friend of mine. Makes sense to use what's readily available and plentiful. If someones cutting it down it might as well get put to good use.myzamboni said:I like Almond. Burns almost as long as oak, and is more of a renewable resource around here. The Central Valeey in Cali if full of almond orchards and the trees harvestable lifespan is limited, so new trees have to be planted. Most of the oak around is is gigantic Live Oak, is very majestic, disappearing in numbers, and a shame to cut just for burning.
