Dry It Yourself Corsican Firewood

Our best-value way to buy Corsican ahead of time and do the drying yourself.

Corsican is a medium-density firewood harvested from wilding pines. These invasive trees compete with native vegetation and damage local ecosystems, so using them as firewood makes productive use of a resource that would otherwise cause environmental harm.

As a type of pine, Corsican is related to the common Pine you know, but it grows more slowly and produces denser wood. This means it burns hotter and for longer than standard Pine.

Why choose Corsican?

Corsican is easy to light and can be burned on its own, without needing a harder firewood alongside it. It also works well as a base layer, helping to get a hotter, longer-burning hardwood fire established.

Supply is limited, as it depends on the wilding pine harvest.

Great for

• Everyday home heating
• Burning on its own
• Building a base before adding hardwoods
• Customers who want a denser, hotter-burning pine
• Customers who like the environmental story behind wilding pine
• Customers planning ahead for future winters

Dry It Yourself

Our Dry It Yourself Corsican is delivered soon after splitting and needs to be dried and stored correctly before it is ready to burn.

We provide detailed drying instructions to help you get the best results, but with this option you are responsible for ensuring the wood is correctly dried and stored before burning.

Wood size

We cut most of our firewood to approximately 10–12 inches (25–30cm). This is the standard size supplied with online orders.

As with all natural firewood, individual pieces will vary slightly in size and shape.

If you require a longer cut, please call us on 03 359 9323 to place your order.
