Raasay Wood Fuel
THE PIT, INVERARISH
Using local “Raasay Larch” felled by Forestry and Land Scotland the Wood Fuel project aims to reduce fuel poverty and our carbon footprint by providing our residents with low-cost firewood to heat their homes. Using locally sourced wood also reduces the emissions from transportation and provides security of supply.
