FIREWOOD ...do not bring wood with you!!  Because firewood can harbor insects and diseases that can kill trees, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR), and USDA Forest Service are asking you to avoid carrying firewood from one location to another.  When you move firewood, you could be introducing an invasive pest such as gypsy moth or emerald ash borer into a previously uninfested area.  Firewood is one of the major ways that tree pests are spread. Some of these insects can devastate our forests.”   To avoid bringing tree pests home, the agencies also urge you to recommend campers burn all their firewood before returning home. State and federal agencies are especially concerned about firewood this year because of two invasive insect species: gypsy moth and emerald ash borer. In addition to invasive insects, firewood can also harbor the pathogens that cause Dutch elm disease and oak wilt. Both diseases can be spread when insects carrying the fungal spores travel from infected firewood to healthy trees.
One wheel barrel of wood here at the resort is $5.00
