Recently, the state of Alabama has been hammered with tornadoes. As a result, there's free wood everywhere.
I've collected quite a bit of oak, pecan, black cherry, and hickory. I started a stack of hickory in a rusty shed (see below), but I've stacked the oak (long stack), pecan and cherry between separate trees.
Is it crucial that I cover the wood and protect it from rain? I would imagine "yes" since it'd be hard to cook with it, even after a year, if it's constantly rained on every few weeks. I COULD move it all into that rusty shed, but it'd be a LOT of work and "stooping" as that shed door is about 5' tall. Any advice is helpful. I'm new at all this. Thanks!
