I have some olds fields I need to get burned off. Who do I need to talk to get this accomplished?
Prescribed burns?

This can easily be accomplished by you and a few friends. First, you will need a burn permit from the Tennessee Division of Forestry. Every county has an office. All you have to do is call them and tell them when and where you will be burning. If you haven't burned before, you might see if they will help. Otherwise, find someone who has burned before, and have plenty of people to stand around and watch your firebreaks. Good firebreaks are the key to safe burning. Make sure the breaks are disked or plowed to bare dirt, and check them immediately before you light it up. If you were on the east side of the state, I might be able to find a few folks to help you out.
