Resilient Landscaping Four Part Series: Maintenance in the Defensible Space Zone (Part 4)

September 24 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

In the last of the Four Part Series, learn how to create and maintain a fire-wise, sustainable garden that supports biodiversity while meeting County code requirements. We can help you with plant selection, placement, and maintenance, to preserve and even enhance wildlife habitat, while keeping your property and neighborhood fire-wise and sustainable. This four part, one hour per week, workshop series will allow plenty of time for questions, and will provide:

  •  Recommendations for fire-wise landscaping in the 0-5’, 5-30’, and 30-100’ defensible space zones, with specific plant and design suggestions.
  •  Practical ways to reconcile the sometimes conflicting guidelines, to achieve a beautiful, biodiverse, energy-saving and water- and fire-wise landscape.
  • A practical understanding of what it means to be sustainable in an ever-changing California climate.
  • Resources for how to move forward with your landscape and community.
  • Practical Maintenance techniques to prepare your landscape for fire resilience such as Pruning techniques, mulching, composting, mowing and irrigation.
