We have designed the workshop for students and resource professionals with limited exposure to prescribed fire. We plan to conduct an actual prescribed fire, pending good burning conditions. We will follow up the fire with some classroom time and very brief topics. If we don’t have a good burn day like any good fire practitioner, we have an alternate plan.
