Reigniting In-Person Community
Reigniting In-Person Community
Pirate Firewood is recycling locally harvested residential hardwood into the fuel to fuel local community. Our mission is to get neighbors out of the house for face-to-face fun around a fire-pits and barbecues in the summer and bring people together around fireplaces and woodstoves in the winter. We're offering an excuse to put the smartphone down, in favor of a toasty reading sessions and the outdoor gatherings that are bedrock of an abundant life.
We'll bring the wood and you bring the devilled eggs and hot chocolate as we make memories together.

Meet the Godwins
Central VA natives, the Godwins don't really know how to follow the rules. Captained by Chance, a VCU professor, professional artist and animator, and crewed by his four buccaneers (including our pet skeleton "Shivertimbers"), we're partnering with local tree companies to process premium hardwood firewood for our neighbors. The goal is to transform our 2 acres by the airport into a small homestead and community gathering spot. Help us make that happen! Click Here to learn more about us and our vision for this project.

What's the difference between green, air dried and kiln dried wood and what kind do you offer?
We sell air-dried firewood.
Green wood is freshly cut and doesn't burn well until it's allowed to dry out.
Air dried wood takes 6 months to a year to fully dry out or "season,"depending on type.
Kiln-dried wood is put in a giant dehumidifier to accelerate the drying process.
