As cooler temperatures, higher relative humidity, and precipitation move in across Massachusetts, the extreme risk of outdoor fires spreading and growing quickly has declined significantly. Ashby Fire Department has decided to discontinue the burn ban in town.

We remind all residents to continue using caution and common sense with any fire.

Open Burning season runs from January 15 to May 1 in Ashby but cooking fires are now allowed again due to the favorable weather conditions.

Thank you from all of us at Ashby Fire Department.
