***wood pellets made in America...***

And to think, Ben Franklin was worried that the good citizens of Philadelphia were burning up so much local wood that soon firewood would need to be imported from Great Britain.

So he invented the Franklin iron stove.

Now we are shipping wood to London for their stoves.

Do you have a source for the Ben Franklin concern? I’m surprised he would think that about a largely untapped continent.
