Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

For a typical Junction City heating season, occasional burners should look at a quarter to half cord, while homeowners heating primarily with wood should plan on one and a half to two full cords to make it comfortably through to the April thaw.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.
While you are prepping for winter, check out our mulch and soil options sourced for the same silt loam conditions found around Junction City, ideal for insulating beds before the ground freezes.

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack with the bark side up to shed moisture, since Junction City's humid summers and wet spring stretches can wick dampness back into your pile if it sits directly on soil. Leave a few inches between rows for airflow, and position your stack where it gets afternoon sun and prevailing wind to keep it dry heading into the first frost.
Osage orange and bur oak both burn hot and slow, making them great choices for overnight coals during a hard Kansas freeze, while hackberry lights quicker and works well for kindling fires. If you are unsure whether a piece is truly ready to burn, a simple moisture meter reading under 20 percent is a reliable local benchmark before it goes in the stove.
Order your firewood well before the first frost typically arrives around October 15, since demand across Junction City rises fast once temperatures drop and scheduling gets tighter. Buying early also gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish drying in your own stack before you need to rely on it for consistent overnight heat.
Junction City sits in growing zone 6a at just over 1,100 feet elevation, and with a first frost around October 15 and last frost near April 15, the heating season here runs a solid five to six months. That kind of stretch means a lot of nights burning wood, and green or poorly dried wood simply cannot keep up with sustained Kansas cold snaps. Our seasoned hardwood is dried down before it reaches your driveway so it lights faster and burns hotter through the long Flint Hills winter. Local species like Osage orange, hackberry, and bur oak are common in this part of Kansas and season differently, so buying wood that has already been properly dried takes the guesswork out of your fires. Silt loam soils around Junction City support dense hardwood growth, which is part of why locally sourced firewood here burns cleaner and longer than wood trucked in from elsewhere.
Expect dense regional hardwoods like oak, hickory, maple, and ash. These species burn longer and hotter than softwoods, which is what you want when a cold snap settles in and the stove runs all day.
Firewood needs 6 to 12 months of drying before it burns well. Properly seasoned wood lights faster, throws more heat, and keeps creosote out of your chimney, which matters most in the coldest weeks of the year.
Firewood that travels long distances spreads invasive pests like the emerald ash borer. Our wood is cut and seasoned close to where it is delivered, which protects local trees and means fresher wood for you.
