Globe South Community Briefing
HOLBROOK CHIPPER DAY - The National Fire Protection Association is hosting another Firewise Chipper Day on Saturday to help people who live near the forest corridor clear brush and dead branches from their property. Officials from the association, which is based in Quincy, say that the dead brush is a fire hazard, and its removal can potentially prevent house fires. The Turkey Hill Firewise program will focus on the properties along Pine and Weymouth streets, and the chipper will be run at the old town fire site in the neighborhood. The chips, produced from emulsifying the branches and brush, will be recycled by the Department of Public Works. People are invited to gather for a cookout and hot chocolate as well.
