Macadamia Nut Trees as Firewood

Hi. I have the opportunity to get some free macadamia nut wood. Is this safe to burn in my indoor fireplace?

Answer

Renee,

Macadamia trees make good firewood and are perfectly safe to burn in your fireplace. Like most fruit and nut trees, they are very dense and therefore burn very well.

Like all species of wood, make sure that the wood is properly seasoned before you burn it and you'll be fine.

Hope this helps!
