In this episode, we break down the essentials of choosing good firewood — from understanding hardwood vs. softwood to knowing why moisture levels matter. Whether you’re a camper, RV traveler, homeowner, or someone who loves a good backyard fire pit, this quick guide will help you burn cleaner, hotter, and safer.

We also share exciting news about the Desi Camping Adventures Firewood Department expansion and how homeowners & businesses can earn passive income by hosting a firewood rack at their location.
