Roanoke Parks and Recreation’s Urban Forestry Office will hold two self-service giveaways of firewood quality wood from 8:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 14 and Saturday, Oct. 28. The giveaways will take place at Fallon Park‘s wood lot. Please bring a pick-up truck or trailer and enter the park on the Wise Avenue side of the park through the Tinker Creek Greenway parking lot. The gate will open at 8:00 a.m. and close at 3:00 p.m. each day. Please check in with the City staff member on-site when you arrive. The firewood has not been cut or split, and a loader will not be available. All material is intended for end users, not for sale. Snow or bad weather may cause the giveaway to be rescheduled.
