This video highlights a field event for landowners to learn about prescribed fire and get valuable hands-on experience conducting a prescribed fire with forestry professionals. Benefits of conducting prescribed fires includes reducing fuel loads which will prevent wildfire risk, controlling unwanted/undesirable vegetation, and improving wildlife habitat and aesthetics of forests.
