The times [of the delivery] of wood [for the altar] by priests and people, were on nine appointed days; on the first of Nissan, the family Arah of Yehudah [delivered]; on the twentieth of Tamuz, the family of David of Yehudah; on the fifth of Av, the family of Parosh of Jehudah; on the seventh, the family of Jonadav ben Rechav; on the tenth, the family of Sinha of Benjamin; on the fifteenth, the family of Zatu of Jehudah, and with them priests and Levites, and all those who did not know from what tribe [they were descended], also the family of Gonve Eli, and the family of Kotzei Ketziot; and on the twentieth the family Pachat Moav of Jehudah; on the twentieth of Elul, the family Adin of Jehudah; on the first of Tevet, the family Parosh, [offered a] second time. There was no meeting of the standing men on the first of Tevet; because <i>Hallel</i> was recited, and an additional sacrifice and wood-offering were brought [on that day].

Tosefta Bikkurim

The commandment is to bring [the first fruits] of the seven types (Deut. 8:7-8), and if he only brought one type, he fulfilled his obligation. How so? He brings barley and places it on the bottom, and then something else on top of it; and then the next-to-the bottom is wheat, and then something else on top of that; and next he puts olives on top of them, and then figs on top of all of them, and surrounds them with grape clusters from the outside. They would not ascend [to Jerusalem] alone, but rather town by town (פלכים פלכים). They would not walk the entire day, but rather two thirds of the day. A cantor from the synagogue would go up with them and they would sleep in the streets of the city. They would not enter anyone's house due to [the possibility of contracting] tent-impurity, which requires a burnt offering an a peace offering. They would not occupy themselves [with distractions] during the journey [to Jerusalem] in the way that they would occupy themselves on the return journey.... When they arrived at the Temple Mount, even King [Herod] Agrippa would hoist a basket [of first fruits] on his shoulders and proceeded until he arrived at the Temple Courtyard. When he arrived at the Temple Courtyard, the Levites sang the psalm, "I extol you, O Lord, for You have lifted me up, and not let my enemies rejoice over me" (Ps. 30:1, JPS tr.). The birds that were tied to the baskets were offered as burnt-offerings, and whatever was in their hands they gave to the Priests.
