Are you ready for fire pit season?

Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial start of summer in Massachusetts and people are preparing to gather outdoors again. The focal point at many gatherings will be a warm, inviting fire pit.

If you plan to add a fire pit, chiminea, or outdoor fireplace to your yard for the first time, make sure to check with your local fire department first. Some communities in Massachusetts allow for cooking fires only; other cities and towns may require a permit for permanent fire pits.

Whether you are new to fire pits or you have years of experience, take a few minutes to become familiar with Massachusetts fire pit regulations as well as fire safety considerations and placement recommendations.
