FWC to hold workshop on "Prescribed Burn Associations" on Thursday in Crawfordville

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Landowner Assistance Program will hold a workshop in Wakulla County on December 1st to talk about how private landowners can work together on conducting prescribed burns on their properties.

The topic of discussion will be starting a landowner-led “prescribed burn association.”

There are a lot of benefits to creating a prescribed burn association.

Prescribed burn associations can partner with natural resource professionals, such as Landowner Assistance Program staff and university extension faculty, to receive technical assistance and training.

They also can host trainings and become nonprofit entities that apply for grants to purchase equipment.

If you would like to learn more, the workshop will be held on Thursday, December the 1st in Crawfordville at the Tallahassee Community College’s Wakulla Environmental Institute.

The free workshop will be from 10 a.m. to noon, with the option to sign in early at 9:30 a.m.


You can Pre-register for the workshop by calling Billie Clayton at 850-767-3634.
