Upcoming WSU North Puget Sound Extension Forestry
Workshop
Firewise
Wildfires
are a natural part of the ecosystem and commonly occur on our Western Washington
landscapes. As a landowner you can take steps to increase the survivability of
your family, home, and property before a wildfire begins. This workshop will
prepare you to assess the fire risk on your property, utilize "Firewise"
construction and landscaping methods, and obtain the support you need to start
protecting your home and property. Wildfire doesn't respect property boundaries,
so we will also cover how to begin building your Firewise Community. You can
even talk to a local landowner about his experience on becoming Firewise. This
workshop is hosted by Washington State University Extension Forestry and the
Snohomish Conservation District.
