Wood sales for winter 2013-2014

Hello!  Quick update for cord wood sales.

Currently east skagit sales and service has put a temporary hold on all cord wood sales due to a family health matter.   We expect that our winter wood should be open for orders (we have a limited supply this year) by the middle of December.  

Currently we have full cords of douglas fir, cherry, and partial mix cord of maple/cherry/fir.  Cord prices are$215.00 - $235.00.  We also have firewood bundles ($6.00 each) for those who will be doing any winter camping in the area....

Thank you all who have inquired recently, we hope to get better soon so we can focus on some winter wood sales!

Until then, keep warm!

Burn ban lifted!

Did you see the great news? We've had so much rain and moisture that WA State has lifted the recreational campfire burn ban on the "wet" side of the state!  

So for any of you camping at our local state parks (Rasar, harry osborne)  and DNR lands, its camp fire time!

Here are the full details... Copies from the 8-15-13 press release...
--------

The following prohibitions no longer apply on WDFW lands in western Washington, but remain in effect east of the Cascade crest.

Fires or campfires: However, personal camp stoves or lanterns fueled by liquid petroleum, liquid petroleum gas or propane are allowed.
Smoking: Unless in an enclosed vehicle.
Target shooting: Except at shooting ranges developed by WDFW.
Welding and the use of chainsaws and other equipment: Operating a torch with an open flame and equipment powered by an internal combustion engine is prohibited.
Operating a motor vehicle off developed roads: Except when parking in areas without vegetation within 10 feet of the roadway and parking in developed campgrounds and at trailheads.

So now you know!

Bring on the Marshmallows! It's Camp Fire time!

So, are you ready to get your Camp Fire on? 

We Are!! And we've got the wood for you to burn!


Most of us here in the Pacific Northwest know that the weather can either be sunny and hot or cold and wet until the 4th of July.   

We're ready for some warm weather (and supposedly it's coming here in a few days!)! But with the start of Summer, means it's time to light that campfire!

So what do we have to offer? Camp Firewood Bundles! 

Camp Firewood Bundles ready for you!

East Skagit Firewood bundles are made with local Douglas Fir, they are dry, seasoned and ready to burn.  Each bundle is approximately One Cubic foot (usually larger) and costs only $6.00!    And the price includes the local sales tax (cash only, receipts provided).



Our bundles are approximately 16" x 12" 12", that's OVER a cubic foot!


So, how can you get these wonderful Camp Firewood Bundles?

Starting June 28th, you can find us and all the Saturdays in July at the Concrete Swap Meet, next to Loggers Landing on Hwy 20 from 10 am - 4pm.  
Look for the bright Blue Truck with Firewood!

 or

FAST FACT:  Did you know that selling Firewood actually requires a Business License in the State of Washington?  

East Skagit Sales & Service, dba East Skagit Firewood Sales, is a licensed business in the state of Washington.  That's the reason that we collect WA State Sales Tax.  And to keep it easier on you, our Firewood bundles include the local Sales Tax, so you don't have to worry about carrying change around!


FUN FACT:  Did you know that our Wild Cherry, when burned, produces a more "purple" flame?  This wood is available by special request only.  Call for more information!
