We are taking, from your comments, that your Woodmaster stoves are made to burn chunk wood. If this is so, they probably have a grate that pellets would sift right through. A stove made to burn pellets lets the pellets dribble into the fire pot as needed. If you would care to give us a call with a better description of your stoves we might be of more help. Only you can decide whether it would be a benefit to you to deliver this far. It would depend on your gas mileage and size of load, as well as your harvesting costs. We had deliveries from about 40 miles last fall. Remember we are not looking for hay that is suitable for farm animals. We need late cut "stuff ". Thank you for your good wishes.

We are in Cobleskill. Will wood and grass pellets mix in a stove of this type.?I was thinking of building a bed of coals with hardwood and then adding pellets by the bag over the wood. The woodmasters have a round fire box. Do you think it is fiscally sound to deliver hay from this distance for pelleting ?. We have a flatbed trailer, so can do our own hauling. Congratulations on your innovation. I hope the plant is working out well for you.
