Okanagan Douglas Fir Wood Pellets
100% Softwood – Super Premium Douglas Fir Fuel
Okanagan Douglas Fir Wood Pellets are made exclusively from Douglas Fir softwood sawdust, with no recycled materials, bark or additives. They’re engineered for high-performance pellet stoves that demand strong heat output, clean burn and minimal ash.
Typical specs: Recent data lists heat values around 8,800 BTUs per pound, ash content under 0.6% and very low moisture levels. These attributes translate into longer burn times, less stove maintenance and more consistent performance during the heating season.
Availability: These pellets are produced in Canada and distributed into the U.S. Northeast among other regions. Because of their premium grade and softwood feedstock, availability may be more limited than standard blends—so check bag date, batch origin and storage condition before ordering by the ton.
Status note: Okanagan continues to be referenced by users and dealers as a top-tier softwood pellet option. That said, premium softwood supplies can fluctuate, and some recent user reports mention batch variability—so testing a few bags early in the season is a wise move.
Bottom line: If your pellet stove is tuned for softwood fuel and you’re after one of the cleaner, hotter options available, Okanagan Douglas Fir Wood Pellets are a standout choice—just ensure you’re sourcing fresh stock and verifying local supply before purchasing in bulk.

Hi, I live in Worcester, MA. and I bought 10 bags of Okanagan Douglas Fir pellets when my regular supplier ran out of my usual brand of New England Hardwood. My god, these are fantastic pellets!!!! Almost no ash and high heat. The problem is I can’t find anyone in my area who sells them. Does anyone know how I can get my hands on some??? They are worth paying extra for.
I have a Harman classic bay 1200 stove.
Okanagan Douglas Fir The best soft wood pellet I have used. Country Boy white lighting is the best hard wood pellet .I have a quadra-fire 1200 classic bay. I purchased this stove in 2006 and this is my tenth winter burning pellets. This stove has burnt any and every pellet found in my area including corn as a 50 50 mix with the wood pellet. This has been a tough year here in Long Island NY for pellets .Lowes and home depot carry the worst pellets I have ever used like Stove Chow Wood Pellets, Timber Heat etc. but my quadra-fire burns them all with out a problem. Its just a matter of cleaning the stove. Just tried Okanagan gold , American Wood Fibers Hardwood, and La Crete Wood Pellets I personally found that my stove burned these pellets with tremendous heat and very little ash.
This is my first year with a pellet stove. My stove is the Enviro M55 Cast. I have tried 3 other types of pellets since I had my stove installed. With the cold winter we’ve had here in Massachusetts this year, I’ve had to run my stove on 3 or 4 just to keep the house comfortable. I just received my delivery of Douglas Fir pellets and they are PHENOMINAL!! I’ve been able to run my stove at 2 almost exclusively. I tested the heat output with the other pellets using a meat thermometer with the stove on high (5). Output for the other pellets (Okanagan Platinum and Supreme Green was around 175 degrees. The temperature with there is 215 degrees on high. I plan to clean the stove tomorrow, but from what I can see, the amount of ash is MUCH LESS than with any other pellets I’ve tried. I will be ordering these exclusively next year.
Had a chance to burn a couple bags of the Okanagan Dougas Fir. Next year I will be preordering them. Definitely the best pellet I have used.
I am a new pellet stove user. The guy at the feed store sold me on these pellets by telling me he has sold pellets for almost 20yrs and if i was looking for low ash and high btu that these are it. Hes right..1 ton burned and very happy, no issues at all except for trying to get them after a tough winter. You cant lose w these.
