How The Little Wood Chipper Started
The idea to make firestarters came when Vicki had difficulty starting a fire in the fireplace at the cabin and figured there had to be an easier, all-natural method. After researching alternatives, she started her journey. Her friends and family tested the products and provided feedback, which has resulted in the excellent products Little Wood Chipper sells today.
Nicki walks for hours, picking plants from bushes, ditches, and shorelines, then hanging them to dry. Many of the firestarters include Manitoba wheat sheaths proudly grown on the family farm, now run by Nicki’s brother and sister-in-law. Friends and family pick pinecones when they come across them and bring them to her to add to the firestarters as well. If you are looking for a reliable fire starter, you can’t miss out on Little Wood Chipper’s fantastic products!
