🔥 Did you know fire can actually be good for the environment? 🔥
At the St. Johns River Water Management District, we use prescribed fire — a carefully planned fire set under specific conditions — to reduce the risk of destructive wildfires and improve the land’s environmental health.
✅ Supports native plants & wildlife
✅ Cycles nutrients
✅ Opens scenic views
✅ Reduces wildfire danger near communities
Every Florida county supports it, and so do we. 💚🌱
