Wood & Sons Premium Softwood Wood Pellets

100% Eastern White Pine – Super Premium Softwood Fuel

Wood & Sons Pellets are made in Sanford, Maine, using clean sawmill by-products from local Eastern White Pine operations. The manufacturing facility was built with high efficiency in mind, and the brand emphasizes sustainability and consistent quality.

Typical specs: around 8,700 BTUs per pound and ash content as low as about 0.25%. These pellets meet what the company calls “Super Premium” criteria: very low fines (<0.5%), low moisture, and strict durability standards.

Availability: Primarily in the Northeastern U.S., especially Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts via dealer/pallet delivery. If you’re outside that region, check with your local dealer as distribution may be limited.

Bottom line: If you’re looking for a high-end softwood pellet that burns hot, clean and supports a locally made product, Wood & Sons is a strong choice — just confirm availability in your area this season.

      Summary

      August 2019 – Amaizing new plant up the road.

      Tony who is the “maine” man up at the brand new Wood & Sons pellet mill in Stanford ME, called me up and invited me up to take a tour of this brand new state of the art mill.  I’m super impressed with the first few weeks of pellets.  They are burning super hot and almost no ash.  Look out VT wood pellets!  Once Tony get’s these dialed in they will be hitting the market and you will need to keep your eyes out for these 100% Eastern White Pine softwood pellets for sure.
      Wood & Sons Wood Pellets are super-premium softwood heating pellets made from 100% Eastern White Pine sawdust sourced from Maine sawmills. These pellets are engineered for very high heat output (around ~8,700 BTU per pound) and ultra-low ash (often as low as ~0.25%), with strong pellet durability and low moisture content for clean, efficient combustion in residential pellet stoves and boilers. Local users report consistent performance and excellent heat, though availability is typically regional (Northeast U.S.).

      2. Best bang for your buck

        (5)

        I have used a lot of different pellets and I can’t find anything I like better than wood n sons. Price is really good however it is going up with the rest of the pellet world.

        Pros

        • - Super clean
        • - low ash (clean out my stove every 3 days)

        Cons

        • Don’t have many cons. If I had one I would say the glass gets a tiny bit dirty when burning at lower rate. I typically only burn at 3/4 open or more on my stove so I typically have clean glass always.

        • 2023 rate pellet company con 2 .used woods $ sons for past ,until 2023 this product turned to a bag of sawdust and put fire out many times,clogged my igniter chamber because of very small fines falling in igniter chamber and blocking igniter from lighting pellets.I got rid of crap woods& sons pellets.bought another brand(much cheeper) had no problems worked as promised! Did not hear about problem from wood sons or there stores that sell products that do not burn as advertised! I though pellet was good at first. Year or too ago then they turned to crap ?what happened! This company did not tell customers that in 2023 there product was not worth what was promoted as a great pellet!no refunds or sorry for screwing your pellet stoves(going out in middle of night no heat).Does this company care ,I have not read or heard anything from this company that has a good chance of going be a good supplier of crappy saw dust?

        (1)

        Used Woods pellets last year 2023 3 months, no issues very pleased. Bought a years supply for 2023-2024 nothing but problems loaded with sawdust stick in hopper fire goes out. Filed complaint 12/1/2023 got 1 ton replaced end of January with hardwood different make. They said it was an isolated issue which I believed. Now know it was and is a common problem.

        Pros

        • Locally owned and operated. Fair price

        Cons

        • Major sawdust problem. Do not burn very hot and high ash.

      5. Wood and Sons

        (4)

        I have a new Harman Acentra 52. These are ok pellets. I never had a feeding or a jamming issue with my stove and these pellets. It’s just that they do not burn very hot. I have had to turn my feed rate up higher than usual. I would buy them again if I couldn’t find a hotter pellet. Medium amount of ash.

        Pros

        • Good condition pellets. Feeds well.

        Cons

        • Burns a little cooler than I expected.
