Hormann’s Firewood require capital investment in timber harvesting and processing equipment (a forest specification tractor, forwarding trailer, excavator, tree shear, log grab, portable sawmill and seasoning boxes) to allow sustainable management of the undermanaged woodlands at Fan Farm and neighbouring farms.
Harvested timber will be predominantly sold as quality seasoned firewood through existing and expanding local markets. The project will also safeguard the jobs of David and Glyn Hormann and create additional employment in the local economy.
