"Expressing appreciation for the great volunteer organization, Prairie Smoke! Volunteers have helped me twice with the implementation of a controlled prairie burn at my property in West Albany, MN. These burns were conducted in accordance with instructions from the Farm Service Agency in order to convert CRP to prairie. It was only with the capable advice from the volunteers that I was able to conduct these burns with relative ease. This was a huge project (79.5 acres) and required a great deal of expertise--more than what I possess. The first controlled burn was done in 2012 and this was actually the catalyst for being able to convert to prairie! So many varieties of prairie grasses and flowers were "awakened" during that first fire. I expect even more miracles with this second fire.
"Not only is Prairie Smoke available to guide you, but the equipment needed for the burn is available for use. All that is required is active membership in the organization, plus a donation for use of the equipment." Thank you!! Helen Myers
