They have firewood booths and most are empty even though there is a supply. There is one booth that is full but people are still not getting firewood

Destroy the empty stalls and see if someone builds them again and gets them working correctly.

I did and they built new ones but refuse to stock them. There are a few that are full but no one is just not buying it and taking it to their home

Do you have a market? Roads?

My game does this too. I had to restart a new game. All my people would stand around and not do anything also when I was shifting their tasks too often I found they get confused.

I found out that when you have 0 free none workers, goods don't travel along your village

Are you finding that the houses farthest from the market are the ones not getting firewood? You can move individual market stalls and I fixed the issue by putting a second market close to the houses that were having issues and moving one of the firewood stalls over there.

You have a fully employed store house stocked with firewood close to the market?

The furthest house away will always receive the product last as far as I can tell.

Say you have 10 houses and the market has 9 firewood. The furthest house wont receive it, and the next time the firewood stall gets restocked it will again serve house 1-9 before house 10 gets the firewood it needs. (which I think the timer resets every month?)

If the person hauling the firewood to the stall is too far away, or the product takes too long to get to its destination, they wont get enough firewood to the market in time to stop this cycle from repeating itself.

I have seen different strategies to combat this, but so far I find that smaller spread out markets have been more consistent, but of course if you do it this way its very easy to make markets too far from the storehouse/granary, thus creating the problem again... (which I would like to add is easily fixable with the granary/storehouse having storage limit/priority system, hope the dev implements this ASAP)
