Cordwood
1700- present
Throughout the region.
The cutting of cordwood is an important long-term economic activity for long time residents of the Pinelands, but the activity leaves no physical evidence except in an ecological framework. Evidence of material culture is important, but no sites exist as historic resources.
Rural residents involved in seasonal activities are associated with cordwood cutting. In more recent years outsiders from the Delaware Valley have become progressively more involved.
On the decline for two generations, cordwood cutting has increased in proportion to the the price of alternative fuels.
