FIREWISE Events
FIREWISE Awareness programs are being presented throughout Southern Mississippi. FIREWISE is a new initiative in our state, led by the Mississippi Forestry Commission, to achieve fire safe planning and development in our communities. FIREWISE Awareness programs bring together local citizens and business and community leaders involved in building, financing, and protecting communities. Participants will learn about why homes burn, various wildland fuel reduction techniques, and how to assess the fire danger of their own home.
