Lunch & Learn: Preparing for the Burn
Date: March 5th, 2026
Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Description: Wisconsin consists of nearly 17 million acres of woodlands, which make up approximately 47% of the land cover in Wisconsin. Deploying fire through different land types is crucial to improving our native landscape. Fire improves native habitats for wildlife by reducing dead vegetation and stimulating new growth. During this Lunch and Learn, there will be a brief introduction to the Wisconsin Prescribed Fire Council, and then we will be exploring how to properly prepare your wooded land for a burn. Covering topics from tree and brush removal, fire break development, heavy fuels reduction, and holding concerns, this will be a must-attend if you have woodlands you manage!
Burning in the woods has a multitude of benefits for habitat for pollinators, deer, and game birds. Come learn how to start preparing your land for prescribed fire, the benefits of prescribed fire, and the risks to consider.
