Unless it is covered by a roof and painted, it will rot very quickly. You need a wood that can be pressure treated. This is usually southern pine. Most of the permitted treatments will result in the typical greenish color due to the copper salts. Current salts used in treating in the USA no longer contain arsenic, so are not poisonous to the environment like older treatment. See http://www.awpa.com/references/homeowner.asp.

Is spruce good wood to burn in a fireplace?
Spruce will make great kindling- to light the fire. However, it will burn very quickly, produce few coals for long lasting heat, and produces a lot of creosote that will need to be cleaned from your chimney. It would be a good idea to keep a little dry spruce for kindling, but find a good hardwood such as oak, ash, or hickory for your main fuel wood
