REGISTRATIONS BEGIN OCTOBER 1, 2024North Florida Land Trust (NFLT) has protected more than 38,000 acres, and through land stewardship restores and maintains the more than 14,000 acres it manages, creating ideal habitats benefiting both wildlife and vegetation. Using “prescribed burns,” NFLT can optimally maintain these land tracts for the benefit of conservation.
A prescribed burn is a planned fire used to meet land management objectives. The “prescription” is a set of conditions that considers the safety of the public and fire staff, weather, and probability of meeting the burn objectives. Every fire has a prescription prepared in advance which describes its objectives, fuels, size, the precise environmental conditions under which it will burn, and conditions under which it may be suppressed.
NFLT has a dedicated expert stewardship team that manages such prescribed burns. Hear from NFLT CEO Allison DeFoor and Land Stewardship Director Rianna Elliott about the ways in which precious land in North Florida is protected and managed.
The program is free and open to the public, but registration is required so the Garden Club knows how many chairs to provide. We appreciate your help!
