Arbor Day!

Arbor Day Side Medallion |
This month we are celebrating Arbor Day at Woodstock Soapstone by adorning our Ideal Steel Hybrid wood stove with the April Steal of the Month artwork comprising of majestic trees. Deciduous, coniferous, fruit trees, and nut trees, we love them all!
Trees provide food, shelter, heat, and shade. We cultivate some, harbor others, and maintain sustainability through woodlot management and forest conservation. It is important to nurture this valuable local source of renewable energy.

News Update: Navajo Stove Project
News Update - Navajo Stove Project
Below is a brief video interview with our Navajo Beta tester Robert Owen, from mid March, 2018. Robert is one of our Navajo beta testers whose stove was installed this January, 2018. We also posted on his installation before. It’s a little bit unclear in the video, but in the six weeks between his installation and this interview he saved two truckloads of wood, which means his fuel consumption was cut in half. This is what we like to hear. He also comments that the heat is more even, and his indoor air quality is better: “I can breathe.” We especially like his comment “I feel like the stove found me.”

The Luck of the Irish

Shamrocks and four-leaf clovers have been legendary for centuries. From Saint Patrick using the shamrock to spread his beliefs to folklore tales about holding a four-leaf clover and seeing fairies. A three-leaf shamrock represents hope, faith, and love. The fourth leaf adds the luck.

Tax Credit for 2017 Stove Purchase
For those of you who purchased,
and installed, a Woodstock Soapstone Co. wood stove in 2017 - we have good
news! The very popular residential “Home Energy Tax Credit” for Energy Star
certified improvements which had expired, was retroactively restored for 2017.
The amount of the tax credit for a
qualifying biomass stove is $300. Consumers must keep a copy of the tax certificate found on our website
with their tax records but do not need to submit it to the IRS with their tax
returns.
The following restrictions
apply:
- Eligible stoves must be purchased and placed into
service in an existing primary residence between January 1, 2017 and
December 31, 2017.
- The current tax credit can be applied to the purchase
price and professional installation costs up to a maximum credit of
$300.
- Homeowners who have taken advantage of previous energy tax credits may not be eligible for the current tax credit. There is a maximum “lifetime” energy tax credit cap of $500, retroactive to 2006. If a homeowner has used $500 or more in previous energy tax credits, he/she may no longer be eligible for the $300 credit currently offered.

It's Seed Catalogue Time!
The thrill of getting the first seed catalogue in the mail!
Gardeners have historically heralded the arrival of garden catalogues in
February. The arrival of the catalogues in their mailboxes signals the
proverbial "light at the end of the tunnel”- yes, there will be Spring! The
practice of going through the pages and choosing which vegetable and flower
seeds to order is an old tradition. This is a tradition that has provided food
for our tables and colorful flower gardens for hundreds of years.

The oldest known seed catalogue is believed to date back to
1612, and comes from an enterprising Dutch merchant. Before catalogues, seeds
were saved and passed down year after year to family and friends. Pioneer
settlers would bring precious seeds, along with their homestead goods, on their
arduous journey to their new homes.

As printing techniques improved, better illustrations and
streamlined printing processes helped to elevate the seed catalogue into an
extravagant and lucrative business. New varieties of vegetables and flowers had
large colorful spreads, enticing and introducing their virtues to farmers and
home gardeners across the United States.

Seed catalogues are an important part of American history,
from Victory Gardens during World War II, to the “Back to the Land” movement in
the late 20th century, to the ”Farm to Table” movement in the 21st
century. In the spirit of home-grown and sustainable practices, Woodstock Soapstone Company continues to design and
promote clean burning wood stoves, to keep you warm while you dream about Spring
as you flip through all those seed catalogues in February.

Sprouts Burners |
To commemorate this yearly rite, our February Ideal Steel of
the Month celebrates the arrival of the seed catalogue with sprouts and
sunshine. Enjoy the warmth of the fire of the Ideal Steel Hybrid wood stove inside your home while waiting for
seeds to arrive, and for winter to turn to spring. The seedling sprouts and
sunshine designs will serve as a reminder of the warmer weather to come.
In addition, your Ideal Steel Hybrid wood stove will arrive with a tool set featuring
a complimentary theme to the seed catalogue inspired artwork. (I’m thinking a Metallic Brown stove with Moss Green accents would really complete the
theme!)
