Things you can do this winter: Install or maintain fire breaks

According to the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, winter is an excellent time to maintain or install fire breaks for prescribed burning. Fire breaks can also be used to protect pastures, barns, and equipment from wildfires that may spread quickly during dry seasons. Multiple disking and/or blading could help create these fire breaks, just be sure to leave them in a drivable condition in case you need to use them. Learn how to protect your land and property at texaseden.org by searching the term firebreak or wildfire.
