Our Story
Clark’s Firewood was founded in 2015 by then 11-year-old Clark Donovan on his family farm in Upperville, Virginia. What started as a small local venture has grown into a trusted premium firewood supplier known for delivering high-quality kiln-dried hardwood firewood that burns hotter, cleaner, and safer than traditional wood.
​
Built on years of hands-on experience, Clark’s Firewood has become a leader in kiln-dried firewood delivery, serving hundreds of satisfied customers who value consistent quality and honest service. Every log is hand-selected, perfectly cut, and heat-treated above 200°F to eliminate bugs, mold, and excess moisture — ensuring wood that’s safe to store indoors and easy to light every time.
​
With more than 500 returning clients, Clark’s Firewood continues to uphold the same values it was founded on: quality craftsmanship, customer satisfaction, and reliable service. Whether you’re heating your home, lighting a fireplace, or building an outdoor fire pit, we deliver premium kiln-dried firewood right to your door — combining old-fashioned care with modern efficiency.
Clark's Story
I have always been an entrepreneur. From setting up lemonade stands outside my house as a kid to starting a mining arbitrage company in high school, I've always been drawn to new ventures. Now, as a third-year at the University of Virginia, I continue to manage Clark's Firewood daily. Running this business is my passion, and I cherish the strong relationships I've developed with our customers over the years.
