🌳🔥 The Secret Life of a Log: From Forest to Fireplace

At Mr Logs, we know every log has a story — and it’s far more exciting than you might think! From standing tall in a peaceful forest to crackling away happily in your stove, let’s follow the journey of one of our logs from start to finish.


🌲 Chapter 1: The Forest Life

Our story begins in responsibly managed, sustainable forests. Here, trees grow strong, soaking up sunlight, rain, and fresh air for decades. When the time is right, certain trees are carefully selected for harvesting to make room for new growth — keeping the forest healthy and thriving.

Every tree that becomes a log is part of this cycle. New trees are planted, wildlife continues to thrive, and the forest remains vibrant for generations to come.


🪵 Chapter 2: The Felling

Next comes the skilled work of felling. Experienced foresters carefully select and cut trees, ensuring minimal disruption to the surrounding environment. The timber is then transported to Mr Logs HQ, where its transformation into firewood begins.


🔪 Chapter 3: Cutting & Splitting

At our yard, large logs are cut down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Using powerful log splitters and a bit of good old-fashioned elbow grease, the timber is split into the perfect size for log burners, open fires, and stoves.

The size, shape, and type of wood all play a part in how well the logs will burn — that’s why we’re so fussy about getting it just right!


💨 Chapter 4: The Seasoning Process

Now the real magic begins: seasoning.

Unlike freshly cut (green) wood, which contains a high moisture content, seasoned logs are allowed to dry naturally over time. Here’s how we do it:

  • The freshly split logs are stacked in well-ventilated, sheltered storage areas.

  • Airflow and time gradually reduce the moisture content.

  • The logs are regularly checked to ensure they reach the ideal moisture level — below 20%.

Seasoning takes patience, but the reward is firewood that burns hotter, cleaner, and more efficiently — perfect for your stove.


📦 Chapter 5: Stacking and Storing

Once fully seasoned, the logs are kept dry and sheltered, carefully stored until they’re ready to be delivered to your home — in tip-top condition and ready for burning.


🚚 Chapter 6: Delivery Day

Finally, it’s delivery day! Our trusty Mr Logs drivers load up your logs and head out, come rain, snow, or sunshine. Whether we’re navigating narrow lanes, tricky driveways, or your curious pets, we’ll make sure your logs arrive safely and neatly stacked.

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of seeing your log store full and ready for winter!


🔥 Chapter 7: The Grand Finale – Fire Time!

Now it’s your turn to continue the log’s story.

  • You carefully build your fire.

  • The kindling crackles.

  • The seasoned logs catch light.

  • Beautiful flames dance and warm your home.

Your log, once standing proud in the forest, is now providing heat, comfort, and cosy evenings — doing what it was destined for.
