Spring burning

March 9th, 2011   Filed Under Blog  

Spring burning is in full swing when the wet fronts are not upon us. Coordinating burns with necessary wind direction and locations is always a challenge. Scheduling multiple burns for multiple land owners is a challenge. You want to help everyone but sometimes is is just difficult to get to certain tracts. That coupled with the limited availablity of helpers requires good planning and an open line of communication with landowners. Travel distance can complecate the situation too.
