We used to get through 2+ cords of wood over the winter on just a woodburner, GG. Granted, it was in France, and the cord was "loose", but burning wood from early October until March/April depending on the weather, we easily got through that amount. That was just for heating (no backboiler). Throw in cooking, laundry and anything else over a year and the amount doubles, trebles..... That did not include kindling to get the blasted stove started either!
