Default Firewood prices??

I don't know what the going price is...I don't believe in paying for firewood...I get mine from farmers groves or downed trees after a good storm. Other times people just need a tree cut down and don't have the money or tools. But I saw this in the paper last night at work..

WOW! I thought when it was $160 a few years back was high. This is in central MN.



I've had farmers tell me not to take the Basswood because is so poor for burning...$300 a cord??

Oak is getting real hard to find...Ash will be very plentiful if the bug comes here. It will change the entire landscape in the town I live in...would be very sad to see realy.

Elm is still killing trees and they will be hard to find soon.

Would love to try Ironwood or even coal, but they are impossible to find. Our power plant/district heating here in town burns coal, but it is the finer stuff. Don't you need bigger clumps to burn in stoves?
