Our wood is packed into standard 25kg and 8kg bags. Our product description lists "25kg" and "8kg" bag size. This is the approximate volume of the bag. Please note that the actual weight varies from bag to bag, because firewood pieces differ in density and moisture content.

- Sustainably harvested indigenous trees: Mopane, Kameeldoring (a Namibian native) and Rooibos
Long burning hardwoods: Denser, burns hotter and longer, and are generally better for fireplaces and wood stoves. Examples include Blue Gum (extremely invasive), Kameeldoring and Mopane. Hardwoods can be quite difficult to ignite, so when used in open fireplaces, you may want to burn it with a softer wood like Black Wattle (extremely invasive) to achieve a nicer flame. Sekelbos is an invasive hardwood that burns hot and produces a lot of coals, making it ideal for braaing over an open flame. Sekelbos is also known for its unique flavor profile. The wood imparts a distinct smoky flavor to the food, adding depth and complexity to the taste. Another popular braai wood is Kameeldoring. Once the fire is going, kameeldoring burns slowly and steadily, providing a long-lasting source of heat. The wood also imparts a unique and pleasant flavor to the food.
How to stack firewood correctly
Start by laying two large logs at the bottom of your fireplace. Stack kindling sticks in two or three layers, reaching up to the secondary air holes. Place two or three firelighters just beneath the top layer of kindling. Finally, add a medium-sized log on top. Light the firelighters, and as long as the airflow is good, you can close the door and let the fire do the rest.
A R150 shipping applies. Please contact us if you'd like to order in bulk so that we can invoice you manually, as free shipping will apply for orders of more than 30 bags of Blue Gum, Black Wattle or Mixed Wood; or more than 50 bags of Sekelbos, Mopane, Kameeldoring or Rooibos.
