These kiln-dried hardwood logs are ready to burn in wood-burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves and traditional open fires. Dried to below 20% moisture, the Ready to Burn benchmark, they light easily and give a clean, efficient burn with good heat and far less smoke than damp wood.
They come in a ventilated barrow bag, so there’s no tipping or restacking. We deliver it on a sack trolley and put the bag exactly where you want it, which saves you shifting heavy logs around the garden. The logs are FSC-certified mixed hardwood, a blend of ash, oak and birch.

Being kiln-dried is what matters here.

They meet the Ready to Burn standard, the mark to look for on firewood. The logs are cut to roughly 22 to 26cm, a handy length for most stoves and fireplaces.

Green Olive long burn charcoal briquettes are made for steady, drawn-out BBQ cooking. Pressed from sawdust taken from sustainable hardwoods into pillow-shaped briquettes of around 30 to 70mm, they give a long, consistent heat, typically 3 to 4 hours, so you’re not topping up the coals mid-cook.
Briquettes are the choice when you want an even temperature over a longer session, which makes them ideal for low-and-slow cooking and for feeding a crowd. They suit most BBQs.
This is the 8kg bag. We deliver bagged fuels across our defined Reading area, so check your postcode is covered, or call the yard on 0118 9242888.
Green Olive Professional lumpwood charcoal is a 10kg bag of proper big-piece charcoal, made from sustainable hardwood such as oak and beech. The pieces are large, ranging from around 5 to 30cm, and that size is the point: bigger lumps burn hotter and longer than the small, broken-up charcoal you get in a cheap bag.
That makes it suitable for professional events as well as home BBQs, so it’s a good choice whether you’re cooking for a crowd or just want a better, more reliable fire in the back garden. The hotter, longer burn means fewer top-ups and more consistent heat across a cook.
