With fire season here, learn how to keep your landscape resilient when fire is near!
Con la temporada de incendios aquí, ¡aprenda cómo mantener su paisaje resiliente cuando el fuego esté cerca!

With fire seasons becoming an ever-increasing part of life here in Sonoma County, and beyond, its important that we do what we can to protect our homes, communities, and surrounding environments by creating defensible space.

Defensible space is an area around a home or other structure that is designed, modified, and/or maintained in a way that increases the probability of the home surviving a wildfire event. In many cases, the ways in which we tend and manage the land can greatly influence the impact that fire has.

Join Daily Acts and the Resilient Landscapes Coalition on Saturday, September 21st at the Cavanagh Center from 10:00am-12:30pm for a morning of learning how our natural and built environments can be better prepared for wildfire, and, how maintaining healthy landscapes can protect your home and the biodiversity of our neighborhoods.

This program will begin with an indoor presentation at the Cavanagh Center, followed by a short walking tour where we will highlight the various ways that residential landscapes can be more fire-safe.

Register today!

Con las temporadas de incendios convirtiéndose en una parte cada vez más importante de la vida aquí en el condado de Sonoma y más allá, es importante que hagamos lo que podamos para proteger nuestras casas, comunidades y entornos circundantes creando un espacio defendible.

El espacio defendible es un área alrededor de una casa u otra estructura que está diseñada, modificada y/o mantenida de una manera que aumenta la probabilidad de que la casa sobreviva a un incendio forestal. En muchos casos, las formas en que cuidamos y manejamos la tierra pueden influir enormemente en el impacto que tiene el fuego.

Únase a Daily Acts y la Coalición de Paisajes Resilientes el sábado 21 de septiembre en el Centro Cavanagh de 10:00 am a 12:30 pm para una mañana de aprendizaje sobre cómo nuestros entornos naturales y construidos pueden estar mejor preparados para los incendios forestales y cómo mantener paisajes saludables puede proteger su hogar y la biodiversidad de nuestros vecindarios.

Este programa comenzará con una presentación en interiores en el Centro Cavanagh, seguida de una breve caminata donde destacaremos las diversas formas en que los paisajes residenciales pueden ser más seguros contra incendios.

¡Regístrese hoy!
