The FirewoodNM project is bearing real fruit for 2010! Alamo Navajo Natural Resources has delivered multiple loads of split dried Pinon Pine firewood to our terrific client in Amarillo Texas.
Firewoodnm will serve to bring firewood harvesting, processing, sales and distribution efforts to a new level of professionalism and success which will in turn encourage and establish new and promising operators from Tribes, communities and other concerned stakeholders.
The pinyon (or piñon) pine group grows in the southwestern United States and in Mexico. The trees yield edible pinyon nuts, which were a staple of the Native Americans, and are still widely eaten. The fragrance of the wood, especially when burned, is unmistakable.
Pinon is a cone-bearing evergreen tree. The scientific name for pinon is "pinus edulis".

This tree is found primarily in New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and Utah.
Pinon is pronounced and often spelled
"pinyon" or "pinion". These trees were known to the Spanish as pinos pinoneros, or "nut-bearing pine".
Pinon wood is a favorite of most chiminea owners, for it's pleasant "pine aroma", which helps to repel mosquitoes and other flying insects.

In the Southwest, piñon is a common fireplace and stove wood. It keeps an active flame, produces good heat, and burns well with other woods.
Re-invented commercial solutions to the issues that confront the nation’s forests will take time to establish, but should ultimately result in a long term, locally based, non boom-or-bust solution. A modern and efficiently run firewood operation, while not romantic in any sense, is the one industry we see which can effectively create markets for large quantities of small and at-risk trees while having an excellent chance of drawing our areas chronically underemployed yet ‘chainsaw skilled’ workers into the solution. The requested equipment will improve utilization and returns on higher grades of trees to be used in Old Wood’s small diameter timber flooring efforts.
