Rather than asking you to come to a shop, the firewood comes to you.
Loaded on a kei truck, around Hokuto.
We do not buy timber in order to sell firewood. We are clearing a mountain in Hokuto by hand, and we split what comes off it.
Trees that fell, and trees cut to open a track. Bucked, split, stacked, left to dry. The order is backwards: the business did not start with a product. The wood piled up while we worked.
The same wood fires our own sauna.
Delivery from three bundles.
A bundle is about an armful. No softwood, hardwood only, for the way it holds a fire.
Campsites, cabins, houses with wood stoves, barbecue grounds. The route follows that week's orders.
Orders come in the week before, and we load only what is ordered. Nothing goes home unsold, which is why the price holds.
The route for the week is announced a few days ahead.
Colder than expected. The shop has closed. An hour of wood left. In winter camping this happens often enough.
Call after sunset and we will still come, anywhere in Hokuto. From three bundles, 900 yen each. We give you an arrival time before setting off.
What is being sold is not firewood. It is getting through the night.
By LINE, email or phone. Your name, how many bundles, where to bring them, and when.
Some campsites require permission for outside deliveries. Telling us the site name and pitch number makes it certain.
This is a by-product of clearing land.
So we cannot promise never to run out.
