Honeylocust

Is honey locust good firewood for burning in a wood stove?



Answer


Honeylocust is a good firewood species. It is a very dense and hard wood, therefore it burns for a long time. Just be careful if you are processing the wood, because honey locust has some nasty thorns. Although there are some thornless cultivars such as "Shademaster" which are commonly planted in landscapes and urban areas.


Good luck!
