What an incredible day at the first Saluting Branches Day of Service in Oxford! MFC had a blast working alongside 110 volunteers to beautify the grounds of the Mississippi State Veterans Home. It was our honor to give back to the veterans who have given so much for our country.
Region 4 employees have completed the S-131 FFT1 & ICT5 class! This training teaches advanced safety and decision-making skills for fighting wildfires, which is key to protecting our state and allows our team to assist others, bringing back valuable experience. #MSforestry
Outreach officer Mike Crabb had a great time with 5th graders at Smithville! They discussed MFC, forestry in MS, and, most importantly, wildfire prevention. They also learned about the fire triangle and were shown pictures and videos of a recent wildfire. Thank you, Smithville!
🔥 MFC responded to a 7-acre wildfire in Alcorn County this past Friday. It was caused by an escaped debris, the leading cause of wildfires we fight. Even a small fire requires a full response. Please, be mindful of humidity and dry grass when burning. #Msforestry #OnlyYou
For over 26 years, Gus Dear has been the "eyes in the sky" for MFC as our Chief Pilot. From spotting wildfires to assessing storm damage, his job is all about communication and safety. Thank you, Gus, for your service and for always watching over our crews. #MSforestry
Fall is here, and so is the threat of wildfires. Never leave a fire unattended! A small spark can quickly become a major blaze, especially with dry leaves and wind. Help us protect our forests and communities. Learn how at PreventWildfiresMS.com. #OnlyYou #WildfirePrevention
Yesterday, MFC's Region 1 Team and Pilot brought one of our planes to Calhoun County Aviation Day. They demonstrated to students how planes and drones are used to fight wildfires and monitor forest health. We also discussed fire safety and careers in forestry. #MSforestry
Last week, our Region 1 Outreach Officer, Mike Crabb, visited the New Site College and Career Readiness class! He shared insights on the MFC's role, the vital impact of forestry in Mississippi, career opportunities, and how healthy forests benefit wildlife. #MSforestry
A testament to on-the-job learning, Rebekah Olander has dedicated 32 years to MFC. As a Purchasing, Property, and Fleet Specialist, her greatest reward is helping colleagues across MS, ensuring they have what they need to succeed.
What's the buzz about Ips bark beetles? 🌲 We're teaming up with TX, OK, SC, GA, and TN, plus the USFS, on a new survey to better understand these insects and their impact on our pine forests. The data we collect will help us manage and protect our forests for the future!
MFC's Forest Inventory & Analysis (FIA) program inventories all of the state's trees every 5 years! This data helps us track forest health, measure the impacts of storms, and support economic growth. Check out this video to learn more: bit.ly/4ghgpfi #FIA #MSforestry
Love the outdoors? We're hiring! The Mississippi Forestry Commission has two openings for Forest Rangers in the southern half of the state. If you're passionate about protecting and preserving our forests, we want you on our team. Apply today! mfc.ms.gov/careers
It's almost tree planting season! The season in MS runs from Dec. 1 to March 15th, and MFC is preparing by conducting site preparation burns. Each year, we help landowners plant about 20,000 acres, or 11 million trees! 🌳 Burns clear out debris for easier access for planting.
This week, our Region 1 team trained with the IGNIS drone! This state-of-the-art tool is a game-changer for prescribed burns, making them safer and more efficient. The drone helps us increase efficiency by over 100%, enhances safety, and improves our ability to manage burns.
Approaching the fall season means it's time for campfires! 🍂🔥 Remember: 9 out of 10 wildfires are human-caused. Let's keep our forests safe. Never leave campfires unattended, and always ensure they are properly extinguished before you go. PreventWildfiresMS.com #OnlyYou
We had an awesome time at the Benton County Career Fair! It was a great day sharing info about jobs at MFC, the importance of forest management, and wildfire prevention. A big thank you to our team for helping make it a success! #MSforestry
Meet Sam Warren! Sam is an Area 12 forestry technician with the MFC, and his job is all about protecting our forests. He responds to wildfires, conducts prescribed burns, and assists landowners. "This is a very rewarding job," he says. We couldn't agree more! #MSforestry
Check out the newest Forest Legacy project, located on the Wolf River in Harrison and Hancock Counties. It is the site for Mississippi State University's Coastal Research and Education Forest. Special thanks to the great partners and funders who made this possible. #MSforestry
On Aug 8th, our wildland firefighters contained a fire in an unexpected place: kudzu. As conditions get hotter and drier, even this "vine that ate the South" can become a dangerous fuel source. Please be careful with all outdoor burning this wildfire season. #PreventWildfiresMS
If your outdoor fire becomes a wildfire, you could be liable. Learn more: PreventWildfiresMS.com #PreventWildfiresMS #OnlyYou #wildfireprevention #MSforestry
