Description
Why do some homes survive wildfires while others do not?
What are the characteristics of the properties that escape harm?
This presentation will examine the core characteristics of survival: roads, architectural elements, landscaping and maintenance. The 2017 fire season was the worst in California's history--it set a record for number of lives lost, structures lost and amount of acres burned.
Join the author of Firescaping: Creating fire-resistant landscapes, gardens, and properties in California's diverse environments for this timely presentation and properly prepare yourself for this year's fire season.
