OUR STORY

Back in 2005, I got a call from my farmer brother, asking me if I could sell some firewood from his farm. With a U-Haul trailer, I'd bring two to three face cords back to Toronto. I quickly realized that to run a firewood business in the city, I needed space.

From 12' x 20' to 50 ft x 50 ft to 110 ft x 50 ft in three years. Now, five years later, Firewood Solutions occupies about an acre at 200 Unwin Ave near Cherry Beach.

Owner-operator with my 14-year old son and one employee, we wholesale and retail hundreds of face cords to garden centres, homeowners, bars, film crews and restaurants. A number of restaurants use our wood year-round to cook pizzas and meat.

Our product is mainly local and comes from a renewable resource--trees. It is carbon-neutral, meaning it creates no more CO2 when it burns as it uses in its lifetime. We are local, so we leave a minimal carbon footprint due to reduced trucking.

So, when you call Firewood Solutions, you're talking to Glenn, not some call centre in a far-away place. You're speaking with someone who lives and spends their money in the city I love, Toronto.

So, think twice before shopping elsewhere. At Firewood Solutions all we do is Firewood. Why trust the part-timers with your business?
