Proper firewood storage is crucial to keep it dry, bug-free, and ready to burn. Choose a location close to your fire pit but not your home, size logs appropriately (6–8 inches in diameter), and allow time for seasoning—typically 6–12 months. Stack wood with cut ends exposed and leave gaps for air circulation. Elevate it off the ground and cover it during wet seasons. Avoid indoor storage and keep the area clean and safe from kids and pets. Proper storage ensures efficient, clean-burning fires.

A wood fire pit offers warmth, beauty, and a sensory experience, making it ideal for family gatherings. Choose hardwoods like oak and hickory for long-lasting, low-smoke burns. Avoid greenwood, softwoods, driftwood, and treated lumber. Seasoned wood burns better and creates less smoke.
