When green removing the bark is tough.
Cut it to length and let it sit all winter.

Alright yall, after building an outdoor kitchen this summer. I’m starting my journey to a cordwood greenhouse (lower half walls will be cordwood construction, upper half will be salvaged windows. Gunna put a rocket mass heater and a bath tub in there too, bc wtf not?
I had some Doug for cut on my property, cleared out a nice huge corner of my shed to dry, got some borax and started working on peeling bark and guess what? The bark doesn’t want to come off.
Gathering supplies over the winter for a spring RMH build. I have Erica and Ernie’s book and have read multiple times. I got my drums with the lid and ring on it but realized I’m unsure if I can use the lid given they’ve got these little plastic lids for the pour opening.
