Now is certainly the time to get your orders in for wood bricks and/or wood pellets, if you haven’t done so already. For every ton sold between now and October 8th, $5 will be donated to The American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer organization. For example, if you ordered 5 tons before the 8th, Woodpellets.com will donate $25. We figured, what better way to kick off Breast Cancer Awareness month?
