The ban covers all outdoor burning, including brush piles, campfires, burn barrels and some types of cooking fires.
Brattleboro has suspended outdoor burning beginning Monday and the restriction will remain in place until further notice as officials respond to a heightened wildfire threat.
Town officials said dry conditions and limited rainfall have pushed the area into a dangerous fire risk, where a single spark could quickly spread into a fast-moving blaze.
The ban covers all outdoor burning, including brush piles, campfires, burn barrels and some types of cooking fires. Residents are being urged to remain alert and to report any smoke, fire or other signs of an uncontrolled burn by calling 911 right away.
