Assuming you intend to process the wood and eventually treat as lumber, you need to allow the wood to dry-out completely. Without knowing what type of hedge/wood, it may or may not be indusive to making furniture. However, you want to make sure the wood has cured to the point where it contains only the amount of moisture that is contained in the air. You can get a moisture testor, but I usally let fresh wood cure for a couple of months. It's not too difficult to gauge when the wood is ready for use.

Good luck

For firewood, you just chop it up. For furniture? Good luck! are you sure the hedge has pieces big enough to make the effort worthwhile?

hi ,from my experience's with working with wood my thoughts are to soak it in water after being cut down and for starters try a smaller tree to begin this project,try putting it into a 5 gallon bucket to soak up water and to stay moist. good luck and happy holidays
