It's a more commonly used synonym of 柴禾.
(PLC and GF both say it's a synonym of 柴禾.)

"firewood" is only a rough equivalent. That word makes me think of something like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewood#/media/File:%C5%A0palek_na_%C5%A1t%C3%ADp%C3%A1n%C3%AD.jpg

... whereas 现代汉语词典 defines 柴火 as 做燃料用的树枝,秫秸,稻秆,杂草等.

Wp
另外,在中国民间,又有“柴火”的叫法,这个柴火则可能不但包括用树木制作的“柴”,还包括用干枯的稻草、野草等草本植物,秸秆或树叶、木屑等物。长期以来,中国农民使用柴火,烧柴。
