I live in northern MN. Winters can be brutal. My house uses gas for heat. I am thinking about installing a wood burning stove. Lead times on these are not bad right now - it seems not many are looking toward heating when it's 90+ degrees.
Are any of you moving in this direction as part of your prep? Thoughts?
I would do that for sure if I lived their. If you live were their is a lot of logging,you can buy a truckload of culls that are to short for the mill to take very cheap. You can also buy truck loads of slabs,if you have a saw mill in your area.
Find out what wood is avalible before you buy.
