Prescribed Fire Burn MCM
Prescribed fire is a planned fire, applied as a professional application of fire in the right place, at the right time. It is a safe, effective process that has been forgotten for the last 100 years as we suppressed wildfire on a state and national level. It’s time to envelop prescribed fire.
