Peach wood in Iowa?

Anyone in Iowa know of a place that sells peach wood chunks?

BTW, I know Firecraft sells them, would rather avoid shipping and handling, not wanting to spend $100.00 for free shipping, just wanting to try a bag and see how I like it.

    Maine Grilling Woods offers free UPS Ground Shipping. As much or as little as you want, at least for me in Maryland.

    No problem - they have a large selection of rubs / sauces too. Good luck.

    Yep, Hawgeyes is the spot.

    Fireplaces Plus in the QC here sells Chigger Creek Wood out of Columbia, MO.  They stock peach.  Chigger Creek is top notch stuff, my favorite wood company.

    The Bass Pro in Altoona may have some too.

    I saw that the TNT Landscape and Hawgeyes seemed to be the same place.

    Same place. Awesome place to checkout if around Des Moines. They have different types of flavored wood available. I think I might have picked up peach when there.

    I purchased peach at Hawgeyes 2 years back so they likely have it.

    Get some from fruitawood. Thier peach is good but im not a huge fan. 

    They offer good wood. I've had a few issues tossing in things like rubs but they've made it right. Shipping is good and included in prices.

    Maine Grilling Woods is fantastic, I heartily recommend this.  I know @mickey is a fan of their sugar maple as well.
