Highlands Center for Natural History: Prescott National Forest Prescribed Fire Education Miniseries – Smoke

During October 2024, The Highlands Center and Prescott National Forest are partnering to offer a four-session miniseries focused on fire ecology and prescribed burns. Through this program, participants will be able to understand the basics of fire ecology, apply this knowledge towards supporting and creating defensible spaces in our communities, connect with and build relationships with our local officials representing USFS and Prescott National Forest, and identify resources in our community for assistance and information. Meeting on Thursdays at 9 am at the Highlands Center: 10/3: Smoke 10/10: Heritage and Wildlife 10/17: Fire Ecology 10/24: Prescribed Fire Burn Demonstration The event is free and open to the public. Donations will be graciously accepted by HCNH which will help us provide more programs for our community in the future.
