Wildfires are becoming an increasing concern across Washington—and the way we design and maintain our landscapes can make a critical difference. Join us for “Building Wildfire Resilience”, an informative and engaging community event focused on practical, real-world strategies to help protect your home and property from wildfire risk. This session will explore how thoughtful landscaping choices—such as plant selection, spacing, and maintenance—can significantly reduce the likelihood of fire spread.
