Customer Reviews
Excellent Information!
Thank you for sharing all those great information! Keep it coming please.
Research based
I’ve been performing prescribed burns on our farm since 2004. The information in this podcast is research based and has given me the answers to taking the habitat to the next level. Always worth listening to. Bringing in other experts and experience in on the podcast is also educational. Keep up with sharing the findings! In 2022 on our farm implemented small unit burns 1-4 acres in size in every month since March. The results are note worthy.

I’m sure had some good information to share but most of what I heard was garbled and broken up.
