Introduction to Prescribed Fire
with Joel R. Carlson
Co-sponsored with New England Wild Flower Society
March 2016
Prescribed fire when planned for and implemented properly is an effective land management, restoration and maintenance tool. This workshop will give participants an overview of resources available to them to assess the potential benefits of prescribed fire, considerations for the safe/responsible implementation of a prescribed burn, and what to expect leading up to/during/post burn day. Participants are encouraged to bring information on a site they may be looking at burning. This workshop is designed as an introduction to land managers to prescribed fire and is not intended to “qualify” anyone to conduct a burn. MACC members $57, Non-members $69.
