Webinar: Drying Firewood in Interior Alaska: Strategies for the most efficient drying times

This winter’s record-cold temperatures in Interior Alaska have highlighted the value of firewood as an efficient and cost-saving heat source.

This free presentation will explain how you can apply the practical results of a firewood drying study conducted by University of Alaska Fairbanks forestry researchers Dr. Jessie Young-Robertson and Matt Robertson. Learn how to implement efficient strategies for harvesting and drying firewood to reduce firewood drying times by up to 6 months.
